Notes

3/11/13 Almost finished with this lightweight sweater.
fringed the sleeves with my hand spun dog hair and used my handspun alpaca/cinnamon girl for the collar.
I was going to lengthen both the body and the sleeves. But, choose to stay generally with the lengths of both.
The sleeves were closer to 13 inches before I did the rib.
I chose to knit 1p, 1k on the collar.

changes:
Added 10 stitches under arms and only decreased 5 times. The sleeves for the small felt tight around shoulders so I adjusted.
