Notes

October 4, 2024

2nd skein of Whales Road at row 54 of colorwork pattern

October 24, 2024

third skein added in body

tried bind-off with Jeni’s stretch, but it rolls a LOT, so redoing with tubular

November 7, 2024

At 13th round past decreases, added in other blue, last row of the purplish yarn is round 16

Start cuff after round 20

November 12, 2024

I think on sleeve #2 I did the decrease at the start of the repeat rather than as the last round of the repeat, not sure if this changes the numbering on the non-repeat section - check at the end of round 7

Added in other blue at row 8

November 13, 2024

17 rounds after end of decrease repeats

November 15, 2024

tried it on again and I think the body is ~1inch too short :/

November 18, 2024

ripped out hem - amount of blue in hem and bindoff was approx 15gr, virgo is just over 13gr - length from right underarm is approx 6” to where ribbing started, so new length should be at least 7”, maybe longer.

got everything back on the cable! only had to pick back one row and fix one dropped stitch, knit through the yarn that was in the ribbing/bindoff and into what I had left of the less-purple blue.

November 21, 2024

restarting ribbing at 7.5” from right underarm (measured to cable) - ~15gr remaining of current ball of blue

November 23, 2024

bound off as in printed pattern (“regular” bindoff done loosely in pattern)
