Have finished 23 rounds of the color work. I am not a fast knitter, but I keep wanting to see the next round. Must go to sleep!

Neck is complete. Yoke is complete. 5” into the body. Gotta knit faster.

Knitting is complete! I love this. Will block it tonight and tomorrow, then come back and post all the details about yarn usage, final gauge and measurements, etc.

Knit exactly per pattern, even though I’ve never worn anything “cropped” in my life. The only thing I did differently was use my US4 for the body and sleeve ribbing instead of the US3 because I couldn’t find my longer size 3.

It measures 54” at the bust (because my gauge was slightly off) but it fits my 52” bust perfectly. Modeled pictures available later… when my daughter takes them and the pattern is posted.

I am so glad Heidi let me test knit this and am already planning a cooler weather version!
