Notes

Used US 5 needles to get gauge for a stiffer hand.

Added 1 inch in length to the peplum, and 1 inch to the body length, for 2” total, because I’m 5’9” tall and I wanted the sweater profile to be longer.

The British pattern was difficult to follow. I got a lot of help from the ladies in my Thursday night knitting group.

A little larger than I would like although it was knit to gauge. Very warm and comfy!
