Notes

3/22/20
After blocking, the verdict is, don’t re-knit the sleeves. It’s warm, light and cool.

He grew so fast, I made the body longer, then had to go for shorter sleeves. They feel tight to him, but I haven’t blocked it yet, and I know this yarn tends to grow b/c superwash. So, hopefully some careful blocking will give him comfy bicepts. if not, I’ll redo them wider and shorter.

I’ve finished the neck, it makes me happy and more likely to work on the sleeves.

Sometime in January
I’ve switched from my old Susan Bates plastic circulars to I forget who’s wooden circular. Much better on my wrists. So far I’m up to the 3rd cable round.

My wrists do not like this yarn. My boy does. The sweater does. so, we ration it out.
