Notes

Update: redid shoulder seams & upgraded from Ugh! to fair to middling-happy. Awesome raku buttons from the brilliant ladies at Dimensions, save it from the outer reaches of ugh-hood.

I’d frog & reuse The Rowan chunky cotton yarn but knitting with it was an awful experience I’d rather not repeat. Moreover, the off-yellow doesn’t easily work into my wardrobe, other than with jeans. Though hanging on a hanger it looks pretty cute…
