Notes
  1. I knit the size L based on my gauge swatch. knit using US6 HiyaHiya needles. My gauge was 20 stitches/4”, but once I got knitting the sweater, I was closer to 22.5 stiches/4”.
  2. I added 2” of length to the body.
  3. I was a bit concerned about how much smaller the finished tee was when I got done knitting versus what I had been looking for. I have heard multiple YouTube makers mention this yarn can grow quite a bit in blocking, so based on this, I decided to wait to judge till after blocking. Pre-Blocking - Length HPS = 23”, Sleeve Width = 6.5”, Body Width = 18”. After Blocking - Length HPS = 22“, Sleeve Width = 7“, Body Width = 20“
  4. Based on the final, post-blocking finished measurements, I am OK, but still not 100% sure I am happy with the fit. I am noodling on frogging the entire sweater and knitting it again sizing up and using a US5/US7 needle combo to achieve the fit I was looking for.
