Getting a bunch of crocking from the red yarn… definitely need to soak it after I knit the sweater before wearing.

I think I might have used a smaller needle on the top half of the body by mistake. While I was stitching the center panel, I discovered that it was waaaaay too long when I knit it to the directed length. I had to rip out many inches in order to get the center as short as the actual finished body length.

There are errors in the directions for the neckline (after seaming the front band) but I was able to work around them. It has the decreases in the wrong places around the markers on one of the rows.
