Notes

Did twisted rib. Made it a little shaped. Wanted it a little shorter so I started the chart a couple inches up. Made size 40, but used size 44 directions for the arms. My arms are somewhat muscular and I don’t like tight sleeves, so I did the increases early, and adjusted the sts to fit into the shoulder shaping. I did the increases on the body in the middle of the seed stitch, like the pattern said; but what I should have done was increased right next to the cable, like I did on the sleeves, so there’s no funny jog in the seed stitch on the sides. I did not whipstitsh the front of the collar; I knitted it on; and used Jeny’s Super Stretchy BO which I am really liking!! I used more yarn than the pattern called for.

12/15/16 Wearing on the first cold snap and I am liking this sweater!!
