this sweater is a combination of all my favorite elements: v-neck, raglan and colorwork

A few notes-

1. Sigh, even with a successful gauge swatch I managed to knit tighter on the actual garment. I have NEVER knit too tight. Ever. I blame this crazy pandemic.
2. Because my gauge is off I needed to try it on. i always knit a 32” and for this v-neck I wanted to have a bit more ease and knit the 34” but it is measuring 32” spot on. Looks okay on this far. Glad I tried it on.
3. I spliced the color changes in the body of the pattern for the first time ever. Wow, game changer for me. I wish I did it on the neckline steek.
4. Because i knit too tight i couldn’t get the crochet steek reinforcement right so i also did my first ever felted steek. boy was i scared. easy peasy
