Notes

A challenging project not for the knitting but for making the pieces to the right size because of the weird construction of this. I read a lot of notes from others that were really helpful and in the end it came out well but measuring gauge closely and keeping track as you make it that the lengths of things are coming out ok is critical. I was using a yarn different from the one suggested in the pattern so the measuring was really key. I agree with others that you probably want a size bigger than you think you do, and you probably want to make the sleeves longer than the suggestion. In the end though, fun, and I love the result. Liked the feel and drape of the yarn but very splitty.
