Notes

So excited to be making one for me now! some minor adjustments for a better fit: wider upper arms, more stitches held for the underarms, slightly more stitches in the body.

the Oak panel is modified/reverse engineered from pictures of several different sweaters featuring one similar, and an Oak leaf motif (with no acorns) available at the knitting fool

the version I made for my husband can be found HERE
