Notes

09/01/2018. Kayleigh is expecting another boy in December - a nice opportunity to knit this fantastic pattern!

09/04/2018. Just got new interchangeable Knit Picks needles for birthday, and sport-weight yarn for i-cord trim on this BSJ. So excited!

09/09/2018. Finished body. Now just need to seam shoulders extend arms with cuffs, make hood, and i-cord bind-off the entire jacket.
Will use the same methods used in my previous BSJ for Anya.

09/15/2018. Finished! Happy with results. Found perfect washable buttons at Joann Fabrics. Now onto blocking and pictures.
