Notes

28-06-2021

My swatch has 10 stitches and 15 rows in 4” (supposed to be 9.5 st and 15 rows). That’s pretty good! I’m ready to go!

01-08-2021

A rocky start with multiple re-starts. Getting the purls and knits right and wrapping my head around the right and wrong side took a couple of attempts.

18-09-2021

Decided to frog my progress so far because the colourwork was a big mess.

04-09-2022

Finally figured out how the pattern is supposed to work where you ‘divide for body and sleeves’. Now eager to get going again - maybe there’s hope I can finish this in time for the cold weather this year.

10/10/2022

Started on the sleeves today.

10/25/2022

Finished the first sleeve and started on the second.
