Notes

This is the second pattern I’ve made my Moreca Knits and I have to admit these are the most favorite of all my handknit sweaters. They fit perfectly.

The picking up around the neck and shoulders can seem fiddly, but with a little patience results in a nice flow to the overall fit.

I finally conquered the Italian bind off. Worth the effort of learning. It’s a beautiful finish.
