Notes

A plodding knit year thus far. Need to see if a large project will get me going.

04/01: Into third skein, have separated sleeves and worked two rounds of body increases, about 4 inches from underarm join. I might have to get a spare skein, most likely would not be same dyelot, so hopeful it will be close enough to not matter.

04/03: Got scared, went back to JoAnn today, 3 months later, found 8 skeins of my same dye lot! I bought two of them, because I’m paranoid that way, so now I have 8 skeins and that should be way plenty, plus a hat or something.

04/09: Four skeins, not quite to bottom of body.

04/12: 130 rows, begin ribbed hem. JSSBO after 10 rows 1px2k rib.

04/25: Previous sleeve decreases didn’t work this time. Ripped back 78 rounds.

04/26: 52 rounds and BO. The end is in sight!
04/28: Knit finished. Tails and half-arsed blocking remain.

My notes: (shorter arms)
