Notes

My annual birthday knit for my husband.

A fairly easy pattern to work through, but even in a heavier weight yarn, men’s garments take soooo much more knitting, those sleeves seem go to for miles…

I lengthened the body a bit so the finished project looks a bit strange flat, but fits him perfectly, yeah! And 1 found matching buttons at Tessuti Melbourne.

Great yarn, great pattern, happy recipient…what more could a knitter want?
