As stated in comments I will do (k1,p1) 7 times instead of 6 times.

I added a list of rows with the set #, coin cable #, and XX cable # to keep track of which chart I needed. I added notes for the button holes and where to decrease for arm hole and neck line so I can be consistent with the other panels. When it came to shape the neck I decided to bind off the 15 stitches that were supposed to be placed on the stitch holder because it only said to sew together and did not give direction to work off the needles later.

Shape neck I bind off 15 Stitches. on next right side row I bind off 3 stitches. On next right side row I bind off 2 stitches. On the next 3 right side rows I decreased 1 at neck edge. When I finished the panel it looked like it should work.

I just learned that I should over stitch(sew) the button holes. I should have used the technique garter stitch button hole. I will YouTube both later.

On double x cable row 14 and 15 the seed stitch should be reversed. Row 14- k1,p1 and row 15 - p1,k1. I will do it as pattern states to be consistent but next one I will change

I had realized I was doing rib stitch instead of moss stich in on the side when I started the sleeves. I also used metal buttons and had to reattach them in a more secure way.

I love the end product and have had many people wanting to buy it. I won’t sell this one.
