Notes

I really enjoyed knitting this and the colour is amazing!

The construction is so interesting. I love all the garter accents on the shoulder, and both hems. It’s such a clever way to achieve the look and little wedge detail as well. Ugh! Really pleased with this.

I did worry I might run out of the worsted so I left the button band for last. It was fine in the end and, if anyone is wondering, my button band took about 85m of the Cascade, which weighed 42g.
