Notes

The project uses a lot less than required: I bought 4 hanks of A and 3 hanks of B and I’m ending with almost 2 hanks of A and 1 hank of B left over although I added 2” to the body & sleeves !

The garter edge (brim ?) is curling, will have to fix that later. But how ??
Cast-on back and front together and worked back and forth over both. Only one seam…
