Notes

IntSweMoDo2016 #2

Modifications:
-Added 10 stitches to each shoulder (saddle) section when casting on, which added a bit of looseness in the upper arms
- Picked up around neck edge and did 4 rows of P2,K1 ribbing, holding yarn double. LOVE the neckline now: in size XL (plus with my added stitches), the neck was just too wide and droopy.
-knit 1 row before casting-off to get that ‘crocheted finish’ edge.

  • If I were to knit again, I would make sleeves 2 inches shorter: after blocking, they just look a bit short as opposed to 3/4.
