Notes

I knit a sweater last weekend that I really hated the resulting fabric of, so I frogged it and chose this sweater instead. I knew I didn’t have enough yarn for long sleeves, but I love this as a tee and I will likely wear it more. Even a chunky sweater tee is great for the office and layering. Super quick and instant gratification —fun little project for yarn that didn’t work for me in my prior project!

I used a German twisted cast on for the collar and
Invisible ribbed sewn bind off for 1x1 rib for sleeves and hem.
Otherwise, I knit as directed. There is shaping and a chart in the pattern —my only real complaint is there is no schematic and minimal photos of FO in the pattern (a pet peeve of mine.) My gauge was dead on, and there were plenty of project notes and photos from other knitters so it isn’t a deal breaker!
