Notes

Finally! The right size for me. See Sweatshirt Sweater 2 for details.

3xstrand

Did not wait for cooler weather to start this project. Beloved version 2 turned out H-U-G-E. Will adjust fit while knitting experience still fresh in mind.

Sleeves:

  • CO 41st
  • inc 2st q6th row
  • end with 67 st/sleeve

Body:
* CO 158 , matching hem ribbing with pocket border.

Boo boo again! In my hast, did the same ribbing pattern to the back hem! Arrg! There are no pocket in the back! So much for mindless knitting…

BO neckline prior to pick-up with US#8 to provide stabilization. Collar still turned out wonky but I think that’s due to the BO. I have yet to master K2P2 sewn BO.
