Notes

My first machine knitting project ever! I did some test knitting until I found the right tension and knitted front and back in less than a hour. Seemed pieces with mattress stitch.

Arm and neck ribbing
I choose a 2x2 ribbing for neck and armhole. Picked up 120 stitches for arm and 240 for neck (102 stitches for back and 138 for front). Knitted 4 rows with 2,5 mm needle and made a tight bind off in pattern.

Modifications
I knitted 6 rows of 2x2 ribbing on the body after I finished seaming pieces together. Knitted hem with 2,75 mm needle and a loose bind off.
