if I’m ever pregnant with octuplets, this sweater will be perfect. until then, it’s a disaster. seriously, the bust on the XS is 60 inches! what was I thinking making this???

yes, I substituted the yarn, and it’s probably a heavier one than the Berroco Linsey. but I did swatch, and my FO is actually a couple inches smaller in the bust (58”!!) and only a few inches longer than the finished measurements in the pattern. I guess I’m just not the body type that can pull this off.

eventually I’ll probably frog this and use the beautiful (discontinued) Noro for something I’ll actually wear. until then I could use it as a slipcover for my fridge.
