Notes

I did not bangoutacarbeth, more like languidlyknitacarbeth.

The colour in these photos is all over the place, I think the ones with the cowl capture it best.

  • My purl gauge was so out of whack that I’m using 5.5mm needles on wrong side and 6mm on the right side.

  • knit the body 1.5” longer than pattern, could have gone a bit longer than that

  • p/u for buttonband was 3 for 4 - 71 sts

  • First time following this technique for sewing on buttons. I will do it again - it’s so tidy!

  • my buttons are from the talented buttonalia. They make the sweater!

  • details about the cowl can be found here
