BUTTONHOLES: I messed up my button hole spacing at the beginning b/c I forgot I was adding buttons all the way down. My second button hole is actually 14 rows down from the first.
-- 2 row button holes started on wrong side (per pattern); 10 rows apart (e.g.: button hole rows 68/69, next button hole rows 80/81)

04/14/10 - Finally picked up buttons at Mew Mew’s today. This baby is all done! I love it!

03/27/10 - Knitting done and blocking now! I decided to rip out the sleeves because it was pooling really bad. I’m went with ishi’s short sleeves. Now I just need to find buttons.

03/16/10 - So…I’m not sure I’m done. The body is done but I wanted sleeves. I only have one skein, 150yds left. How much can I get out of that? Maybe I’ll look for buttons in the meantime…

03/14/10 - I’m just past the bust line. I was planning on adding sleeves but it doesn’t look like I’ll have enough yarn.

03/13/10 - This is my fourth Shalom. I will be modifying this for worsted weight yarn. Wish me luck!
