Notes

Making stockinette sections on the Pinky knitting machine and the yoke by hand.

The sleeves came out funny with a fat bicep shape. For the small size, I had to start over doing the increases every 10th row instead of every 5th row therefore I did half of the increases the pattern calls for. I used a sweater that fits me well to measure the sleeve proportions.

Great pattern with lots of customizing options. Endless possibilities changing the color designs.

276 std after joining . Reduce to 260. (Multiple of 20).1 every 17.

Very enjoyable project.
