Notes

I liked this sweater pattern - it’s sweet and easy and makes a nice looking product. But for the cost of the pattern, I expected a bit more. A schematic or measurements for how long things should be. I get tired of patterns only telling me a few measurements, usually the ending ones. I need to know way before the ends of the sleeves how many inches should between the top of the shoulder and the divide for the arms. Row counts are just not sufficient - they’re not actual measurements. I do worry that because I used a different weight and didn’t have any actual pattern measurements to go off of that this will be an ill-fitting baby sweater I made for my first little one…that the armholes will be too shallow the the arms incredibly long. Nothing to do but wait and see, I suppose.
