Notes

03-10-2020

Starting another stash buster sweater.
Had to go up 2 needle sizes to get gauge.
Lot’s o’Cables!

03-23-2020

Working on the ribbing at the bottom edge now.
Got all the ribbing on the body finished.
Tried it on and looks like a really great comfy fit with maybe 3-4 inches positive ease.

03-30-2020

Working on the sleeves 2-at-a-time on one cable needle. Just finished the last round of decreases, so now have about 5” to go with just the sleeve cable until starting the cuff ribbing. So close to done!!!

Finished knitting this evening - looks like a great fit!
Need to weave in a couple ends and get it blocked.

This cable pattern is beautiful! For some reason it reminds me of bamboo stalks.
