Notes

not sure if i’m going to use the jade or the white for my contrasting color. i love the jade against the red, but unsure how it’ll look worked up. and since i don’t swatch, i’ll figure it out when i get there! ;)

01.05
2.5 inches of sleeve ribbing on US6.
first sleeve done. 18.5 inches.
i don’t look so good with waist shaping since i have no “waist” to speak of. i’m like a box. so i’m going to make the sweater just 49” from the bottom up.

01.06
c/o 208 on US6. 2 inches of body ribbing. increase to 224.

01.10
endless stockinette.

02.12
love it! my first bottom up sweater. my first yoked sweater. i see many more in my future. unblocked shots now. blocking should give me a little more room, though i don’t mind the fit of it unblocked!
