Notes

It took me a while to gather the yarn for this project. Two balls here, three balls there, etc but I finally had enough for a sweater. This looked like the perfect project and even though I am not a keen fan of bottom up, I decided to bite the bullet.

Debated whether I was going to steek or not and decided I would just do a pullover. I inadvertently chose the wrong chart for the body but since I was making it longer, I thought it would be okay. Also, the yarn was worsted so my gauge is a little off.

Thank you Helene for the generosity of your pattern.

Revisions:

  • Worked an additional 2 inches to the body
  • Made the sleeves 3/4 inch shorter.

The sleeves ended up being still a little long and a little tight at the upper arm.. I know why I like top down.
