Notes

I have only 3 skeins so I am making the xs size - not the best way to determinate but there it is. Some comments note that the yarn stretches significantly so I’ll hope for that. Also 3/4 sleeves and keep it waist length. Button band --and sleeve cuffs -- could be in contrasting colour.

3 skeins is about 100 yards short of the yardage requirements for xs and s, which suggests to me that it is possible that xs will work out!

Finished … with no more than 3 inches to spare. Bound off button band with 1 row less than pattern.

Blocking needed before I can determine how well (or not) it fits.

I need to work on joining yarn for sleeves to avoid gaps.
