Notes

9/54/14. I just hated this sweater, I frogged it. It came apart better than I thought it would as the yarn does have a tendency to break. Very kinky but it yanked it with my swift and soaked for 45 minutes with just a little wool shampoo, dried in a towel, and hung on plastic hangars in the shower. A lot more water came out in the towel than expected. 24 hours and it is just about dry, the task will be to get it into neat balls. Then returned to stash for a new project.

9/30/12This sweater turned out much boxier than I thought it would be. I made the small, but used the medium + for the length. The yarn had a tendency to break, not my favorite to work with. Loved the ribbing with the cables, my favorite part to this sweater actually. I am going to rework it a bit, and hope that I will like it more then.

The yarn did not hold up well.

I think I will be frogging this one. It is the last sweater I go for, and that is out of guilt. Then I just don’t feel good in it!
