Notes

SIZE 3 CORRECTION: when dividing for sleeves, the back section should be 68 sts (like the front section, rather than 80, as stated in the printed pattern). I counted a lot of stitches and did a lot of maths, then found out that maybe there is a mixup in that line. (Total stitches: 12 less than on the page.)

Skipped that YO pattern down the sides for personal aesthetic reasons. Just knit all of the remaining body in stockinette.

Literally started the last ball of MC to finish my bind-off, LOL!

ADHD hack for the sleeve decreases: I’m knitting on DPNs, so my marker is an openable one attached to the last stitch of my round (because otherwise it would slip off the needle while I’m knitting). I’m leaving the marker on my decrease row, change colours as I see fit (trying to stay close to the stripes in the pictures), then when I’ve completed the next decrease row, I move it up. This way I always know where my last decrease row was.
