Notes

I’ve been eyeing all of PetiteKnit’s designs lately. I really like their simplicity and her yarn choices. Her Instagram feed is one of my favorites. I finally caved to her beautiful photography on Instagram and cast on for Anker’s Shirt.

This was really fun to knit and I loved working with the String Theory yarn--very, very nice. If I hadn’t been in a hurry to finish I would have handknit the entire sweater to prolong the enjoyment of knitting with Caper Sock. I did the stockinette body of the sweater and the sleeves (except for ribbing) on my 940 machine at T10.

Note to self: If doing this again with folded hem, mark hem row with a lifeline to make hem seaming easier.
