Notes

Knit in plain stockinette instead of texture pattern because the yarn is marked and busy looking.

GAUGE
Unblocked 5.25st x 7.75r
Blocked 5st x 7.4r

BACK
Decreased every 22 rows instead of 20 rows due to my gauge. Then 1” more of stockinette still BO.

Armhole Shaping BO in knit st on RS and BO in purl st on WS.

ARMS
Knit TAAT
Began underarm BO at 20.5”

SEAMING
First time seaming a sweater and took some Tim to figure out; the raglan pieces in the back didn’t match in size well (the Sleeve raglan line was longer than the Back raglan line).

For side seams, I turned it inside out for seaming. Originally seamed into purl bumps but thought there was too much of a bulky appearance to the seam on the right side. Instead, seamed into the first stockinette st beside the purls/WS (this may technically be the selvedge, but it still gave the raised seam appearance on the outside).
