Notes

Started on the September New Moon! Waiting for the errata to be finalized before getting into the chart!

10-18-2018

Soooo, thinking that attempting this as my 2nd colorwork sweater maaaay have been a little naive of me. Had to frog this back so many times.

Just past the central moon phases, and I love the sweater. The chart for size 2 isn’t exactly symmetrical, which to my Type A perfectionism, was a little difficult to embrace, but there’s so much going on, I don’t think you’d be able to tell. At least I hope you wouldn’t!

I made the 3/4 moons more ‘waxing gibbous’ by adding a column of 6 and a column of two to the inner edges (the ones that are straight down. We’ll see how it looks when alls said and done!

On sleeve island (finally!) I added another arrow in the body to lengthen about 20 stitches. For the sleeves, I’m carrying the yarn around - at first I did the weave back as suggested, but I didn’t like the way it looked, so I ripped back (AGAIN!). In the gaps of CC, I cut and rejoin when it picks back up. I am trying so hard to get this done by this Friday!
