Notes

Thank you Teti for this opportunity to test for youheart

Followed pattern as written, only mod was adding length to yoke depth to 9 inches, adding body and sleeve length, and knit body hem and sleeve hem to 3 inches.

I did pick up the long floats and just picked up on differing places for continuous rows with multiple long floats to decrease any pulling on that area. Be careful with the underarms when starting the stranded colorwork so not to get too tight. I used a US size 5 for the yoke and sleeve colorwork and a US size 4 for the stockinette, and sleeve/body hems.

I love how oversized and cozy this sweater is, especially the mock neck.

I love the yarn choices, Recollect is such a beautiful, squishy soft yarn, and it blocks so nicely, it’s one of my all time favorite to go to for sport weight yarnheartheartheart

Pattern is well written and easy to follow
