Notes

This is a sweater that my mother started knitting for herself before she became pregnant with me. She knit the entire body and had the sweater mostly put together but never added a collar. I found the sweater in the back of a closet with the live stitches still on the needle and added the darker gray to the collar, sleeves, and bottom to make it a little bit longer. I have no idea what type of yarn was used but it sheds like crazy and is very scratchy! I love the sweater but I don’t wear it that often… I wish there was a way to make it stop shedding.
