Notes

10/21 Ugh! It is almost a month later and I only have the back and one front side complete. I thought this would go much, much faster. I now hate moss stitch. I am usually a fairly fast knitter and this is big yarn - maybe it is me but I just can’t moss stitch quickly. Now to cast on the right front……

11/8 Finally done - never again this much moss stitch - this project took forever. Not sure why - a little boring to knit. Now all I need are some buttons…

11/9 The sweater fits beautifully big, good proportions. I kint a “10th” size (for age 11-12) for my daughters that usually wear a size 10 and it is cozy and roomy enough that it will definately fit through the spring maybe even next fall too.
