Notes

I have just 54 grams of this yarn left.

First attempt frogged because it wasn’t long enough to go around my neck. Second attempt, I CO 144 stitches with the size 8 needle. Then I knit 2rows before beginning the pattern stitch with the size 7 needle. Two rows after the button hole, I K7, K2tog, did a few more rows of SS, then started the garter border. On the first row of garter, I K6, K2tog & switched to a size 6 needle, trying to prevent border flip. I wish I had placed the button hole a bit higher.
