Notes

Another FBS off the needles just in time to miss the baby shower by a week.
Followed EZ’s directions. The only mod is not putting buttons past the yoke secion.

Finished measurements:
18.5” chest circ
9.5” shoulder to hem

Notes on yarn: I ordered the new Simply Cotton from KP thinking it was a true sport weight but really this was closer to fingering. Being cotton it doesn’t have the fluff and memory of wool and I think this particular pattern benefits from a more substantial wool.

The Simply Cotton is really nice, no splitting or fuzzing, and super soft.
