Sized up to a size 6 needle for the colorwork since I tend to make that tighter than most.

7/24 - finished the hem. SO glad I sized up to a 6 for the colorwork. The fit is perfect. I did the short rows in the back, the k3p1 edge for 5 rows and “Jeny’s surprisingly stretchy bind off” - https://www.10rowsaday.com/stretchy-bindoff

Project note: Fingering weight sweaters have been very daunting to me, and they usually take me a really long time. I wanted to see how fast I could knit this up. The goal was 1 week, but I’ve had a few baby gift items pop up. Looking like it will be 2 weeks

Edit to add: It took 16 days. Also knit in that timeframe - 2 hats and finished another sweater.
