Notes

Won the main color in a Rowan Connect contest.

Mods & Thoughts

  • Worked the sleeves from the cuff up. Not really sure what the point of knitting them top down would be unless you’re picking them up from the body?
  • Joined the shoulders with 3-needle bind off.
  • Didn’t want the neckline to be too wide so took 4 stitches out of center back & front and added 2 stitches to each shoulder. Probably would have been fine as written.
  • No ribbing, just rolled stockinette at the neckband, cuffs, and hem. Might do a round of SC around the hem and cuffs, will have to see how I feel after wearing it a couple of times.
