Notes

My first ever project to be knit entirely on a machine. This BT design is perfect for a start!

Turned out a truly basic pullover, simple and comfy - the homely sweater you put on without thinking.

Mods:

  1. Added extra 30 rows on lower body and sleeves - I prefer longer garments
  2. Don’t like the way the collar is worked, will think of some other way to knit that

All in all, it took some brain effort to convert the pattern for a machine, but everything worked out.
