Notes

Got gauge on size 6 needles. With this yarn, it seems the stitches are very dense.

Used a video from Suzanne Bryan on picking up stitches around the armhole that was very helpful.

Picked up stitches for the button band as indicated on the pattern. Pick up 2 stitches for every 3 stitches.

Finished everything except blocking, weaving in ends. Need to find buttons. Photo is posted.

I liked that pattern, but it was really hard on my hands to knit worsted weight yarn with a size 6 needle. I think I would try a DK weight next time.
