Gauge is 17 sts per inch on US 6, unblocked. Will swatch with US 7 to see the difference.

Actually swatches with US 9 and got nearly gauge (one stitch less per 8”), knitting the size 2 to account for a slightly sender gauge

My row gauge is a lot more condensed (5 rows per inch vs pattern gauge of 7.5 rows per inch) so I’m knitting less than 5” for the back before shaping, to account for this.

Picked up additional 3 sts for each sleeve to account for my more condensed gauge.

Knit extra length (will measure)

14 rounds for cuff and BO in pattern
