Notes

Fit is great! A fun and quick knit.

Mods

  • I used ladder back jacquard in the yoke
  • My usual size mod is to put extra stitches under the arms. In this case, 21 sts instead of 7
  • For the hem, I used the sleeve hem treatment from Silpia. 4 rows k1 p1 rib followed by an inch of stockinette.
