Notes

Swatched with the most lovely, though nameless wool I bought on holiday in Ballarat, Australia about 10 years ago.

Have completed most of the back. In my opinion, this is a surprisingly challenging knit (others may not agree - that’s fine). The pattern itself isn’t difficult, but keeping track of the cable, the increases and decreases is something of a challenge. For that reason, even though it looks so simple, I wouldn’t take this out to a knit night or consider it mindless TV knitting.

Finished - just need to get pictures.
I knit this for a teen and found the arms to be too wide and a little short for him. The body fits very well. I think the provided sizes will be fine for most adults but I really should have measured more than just his chest prior to knitting.
