Notes

Used magenta instead of brown! I love the way this yarn knits up. It’s so soft and not scratchy like 100% wool, and it has a nice sheen to it. It can be fiddly to knit with the rayon wrap thread, but most of the time you don’t notice, and it’s worth it.

I tried some side shaping, and it came out OK. But I probably wouldn’t bother again. I also might have added some short row shaping to the back of the neckline, but I didn’t know what short row shaping was when I knit this! =)
