Swatched. I got gauge with size US 10 needles. I’m planning to make the long sleeve version with tight cuffs.

2018.05.06

Received the pattern and I was able to finish the collar today. So far, so good.

2018.05.08

It’s going quickly. Pattern is easy to follow. No mods so far. I’m working on the increases.

2018.05.09

Separated the front and back. Working on the front section.

2018.05.12

Finished the back section. Joined to work in the round again.

2018.05.19

I got a bit sick. I’m feeling much better now, so I finished the body. I’m behind. I need to add sleeves now.

ETA: finished one sleeve

2018.05.20

Finished knitting. I just need to do a light block and take photos.
