Notes

I bought this yarn when it was announced as discontinued in 2009 and it has been in my stash waiting for the right project. I think this is it, however I seem to have reverted to type after the central park hoodie - fine yarn and small needles.

This is my current travel project. Miles and miles of stockingette.

An aside - Sometimes I don’t ‘get’ Rowan. This is a great cotton yarn with great yardage and they go and discontinue it. What’s up with that?!

Thanks to cocolos for acting as photographer on a break from work (hence the creases from my slumping at the keyboard).

The buttons came from RixRax at $0.45 a pop. That store is the best, and a short bixi ride from my place.

Notes:
The plan was to cast on the size 34 and increase to the size 36 bust. I did this by increasing every 10th row 5 times and then every 6th row 5 times after the waist shaping.
