Notes

05-31-2021

I learned so much knitting this! This was my first time doing stranded colorwork flat, and it was definitely a challenge for me, but I love the end result.

I made the second size (40”) but my gauge was closer to 28 sts/4 inches, so my sweater measures about 38” (my goal!). I did 5 repeats before the under arm rather than 6, because I’m short and I was hoping for a slightly cropped length.

It love the fit!! The neck is perfect!

The pattern is really clearly written. I feel so lucky to have been able to test knit it!!
