Notes

Cropped version, size 39 but lengthened by an inch (so length as for 41). My gauge on 5’s (one size down): 21/28.

Lace on size 5’s. CO for size 39. Work back panel to 14” length. Side body: CO 73, pick up 73 > work side body on 146 sts. Work to 6.75” length (23 YO’s in fagoting sections).

Side seam: BO 33 - 81 sts remain; work sleeves as written on 80 sts.

Needles: body on 5s (aluminum), sleeve on 3.5mm bamboo dpns (unintentional change, but works well because I knit looser in the round), sleeve ribbing on 3.0mm bamboo dpns.

Blocked to 39” around, 16” long. Very happy with this. There’s absolutely no shaping - it blocks in a perfectly straight T-shape. But when worn, it fits and hangs beautifully. Were I to knit it again, I might pick up more stitches for the front/neck band - I think it would work better if the ribbing didn’t need to stretch quite so much.
