Notes

I believe that this ‘original’ pattern is more complicated than the new version as it has an additional 2 cables on each side. The side cables are more complicated to knit than the main center cable, in my opinion.
Chart C for the side and sleeve cables contradicts the key, on row 5 and 7, so I had to use artistic license to decide which directions to follow. Might be an uncorrected typo.

12-23-16: in the process of sewing together.
12-20-16: began the shoulder straps.
12-16-16: finished the sleeves except for the shoulder straps.
10-23-16: cast on for the sleeves since the weather is definitely cooler.
4-6-16: finished the front; and hibernating until cooler weather.
1-13-16: began the front
