Notes

YMy gauge is 5.5 spi and 9 rpi, while pattern calls for 3.5 and 4.75. Knitting the 5th size, to hopefully end up with a top around the right size, and will do repeats for length to get to measurements for one of the larger sizes, given her height, though I do still want it cropped-ish. Won’t do the picked up and added sleeves, but may do a few rows of seed stitch at the sleeves just to finish it off - we’ll see.

3/28 - 11 repeats before starting edging.

3/30 - started back. Added 8 short rows to center back at top to have it hang down less. Added 9 stitch garter stitch panel to center of back.

I did short rows all the way across the bottom of the back, from widest to smallest so all wraps would be by the edge. In 5 sts each time.

For neck, picked up and knit 4 rows in seed stitch, with some decreases at neck corners. Sewn bind off.

Picked up 93 sts for sleeves. 5 rows seed stitch, bound off regular with slightly larger needles.
