Notes

Hela number two, this time for Mom! Christmas/birthday gift 2015/2016.

Knitted primarily in Yosemite and en route to Whitman via minivan back seat in August 2015.

Zipper and steeking done in December 2015.

Mods: longer body for a human with a longer torso, shorter sleeves, smaller toothed zipper than last time, longer neck than last time, ripped cuffs instead of whatever stitch was in pattern.
