Notes

I used Drew’s pattern for the measurements and shape of the sweater but the rest of it was my design. I’m hoping he can tell me what the name of the stitch is that I used because I can’t seem to find it anywhere. It’s all hdc in the ‘extra loop’ to create a chain (instead of a bar) on the front of the work. The center piece was worked in hdc through all loops. The tops of the sleeves were made with a different colorway because I was running low on the main color, but I really like the way they turned out. This one took about 9 days to complete. I would have completed it sooner, but I had trouble figuring how to set in the sleeves and also put them in ws to rs at least 4 times - UGH!!! That was my cue to go to bed.

Mystery stitch is short half double crochet used in Camel crochet. The center was made by working between the posts. Never mind, Drew!
