Notes

So far, so yummy!

It’s a brilliant pattern.

I probably should have read through the project notes before starting as I would have increased the sleeve stitch numbers.

To account for my row gauge I added more rounds before separating for the sleeves. Planning to use the additional stitches to add to the sleeves.

Also followed directions for additional short rows on the back.

It looks tiny on the needles. I keep telling myself to trust my gauge swatch. Just in case, adding a few stitches after the waist for my generous hips.

Update: It looked small on the needles because my stitch count is a mess.
