Notes

LK150 tension = 1.0; carriage = 1.0
Blocked gauge = 48 sts + 82 rows = 20 cm + 20 cm

So pleased with this FO - I just need to order some buttons now!

The next time I knit a Stockbridge I may go up a size for some positive ease but otherwise I would not change a thing. The sleeve cap shaping in ingenious & the only short-row sleeve-cap that I have been happy with.

I’ll definitely be knitting future versions of this design - it is a quintessential wardrobe staple!
