Notes

I made this years ago, but I believe I used Cascade 220 Sport in Golden Rod, doubled up to make a DK. It’s always given me an issue with button gapping, and if I had to do it again, I’d size up to avoid that. Also, I thought I could get away with washing and drying it in machines: nope (so I guess it was not a 220 super-wash)! It shrank and felted somewhat, and it was hard to block back out. I can really only wear it with sleeveless tops; it’s too tight over anything with sleeves and makes the fabric of whatever top I’m wearing bunch up at the collar. Honestly, I was considering throwing it out, but when I asked for second opinions, everyone said, No! I get a lot of compliments in it, so… As long as it looks good on me, I guess it doesn’t need to be perfect!
