Notes

12 months from start to end.

Pattern is extremely well written with everything step by step. I had no trouble converting the pattern to a Henley as the cable pattern converts easily from straight rows to in the round.

I didn’t increase for hips as much as they were too big for me. I knitted the last few inches without any increases

Cables are beautiful but definitely a labour of love. I redid the sleeves as they were too tight. I admit that I found the sleeves really tiresome with the cables so I only made 3 x cables on each sleeve and ran it down into the cuff. I did my own decreases as a trial as I didn’t want a really tight sleeve.

Washed without blocking. Wool grew about an inch in length which ended up being a perfect fit. Wool is beautiful and I would use it again. Washed up a treat.
