Notes

I’m so excited to be able to begin this sweater! I had a lot of difficulty tacking down the last skein of K454 that I needed and didn’t want to begin with certainty of having enough yarn to finish! But I received the notification from Jimmy Beans Wool just last night that they had more in stock, so I ordered that last skein immediately! I just received the shipping notification, so I know it’s on it’s way and I feel confident to begin now!
5/6/15: I went down a needle size in order to get gauge, so I’m actually using sizes 3, 6, 8, and 10. Working on the back now. The pattern chart itself isn’t difficult, but the way you work increases on both sides while keeping the pattern going is definitely a worthy challenge! This is knitting that needs focus - no watching TV or listening to audio books while working this portion of the sweater! ;)
