Notes

01-16-2023

Finished the back. After finishing the back, I discovered that I used a size 6 needle instead of the size 5 called for in the pattern. The needle had been in the wrong section of my needle storage and I didn’t notice.

This has been sitting in my UFO pile for almost a year. I pulled it out to see where I left off. I had finished the back, and it appears I was about to start the armhole bindoffs on the left front. However, the instructions say to start the bindoff at 15 inches. The front is currently 20 inches. I compared it to the back, and I see that I did the back to 19 inches before starting the armscye. (Probably due to using the size 6 instead of 5 needles). I need to rip out an inch of the front before beginning again. This is probably why I tossed it into the UFO pile in the first place. LOL

Chugging away on the front ribbing. 4 inches takes a while to knit. I’ve totally lost track of how many skeins of yarn this took.
