Notes

I finished knitting this in the summer, so wasn’t motivated to find the buttons for it just yet.

The yarn is lovely and soft and great to knit with. The pattern is easy to follow.

I probably should have picked the next size up, but chose the smaller one because my stitch tension was slightly off and using the smaller size instruction should have made it about right.

It should fit well enough, just will a little less ease than I usually prefer. the sleeves are nice and close-fitting which I prefer for sleeves.

the only mods I did were to the length of the cardigan and sleeves, and I only did waist shaping at the back (as per Amy Herzog).

I only put four buttons on the body button band because I forgot that I’d also need buttons on the sleeve cuffs.
