Notes

23.02.20

Graded this sweater to fit a 28” chest. Aside from reducing the stitches cast on, the main modification was to decrease the depth of the V neckline.

With a simple sweater, the finishing is really on display, so I took plenty of time to make sure that the neckline decreases are smooth and even. I steam blocked the front and back in to shape before picking up for the arm and neck ribbing.

As the ribbing is such a prominent feature of this design I finished it with a tubular sewn bind off to keep things extra sleek.
