Notes

Started the sleeveless/vest version of White Mountains Light as a reward for (almost) finishing my Guernsey Wrap.

03-29-2025

Tried on before joining front and back and decided to take out cast-on stitches under the arms. 234 sts total.

04-10-2025

Have about 8-9” knit below armscye. Planning to knit at least 7-8” more plus 2” of ribbing. Trying on as I go.

04-19-2025

Have knit approximately 16/17” below the armscye. Changed to 3.75mm needles and reduced stitches by 10% (to 210 total). 1x1 ribbing for 2”.

04-21-2025

Bound off hem using Lori’s Twisty Bind Off. Worked the I-cord edging for both armscyes (on 4.5mm). Blocking.
