Notes

5 spi on size 6 needles. If knit following directions for size small will produce 34.4” bust, which should be about right.

Measured her and sweater that fits well - 32” is better. Will still make small, but maybe size 5 needles?

Want a slightly larger neck opening, so provisional CO 90, knit per pattern, then increase to 106.

She wanted the neck still bigger, so I ended up frogging back until before the second set of increases and then doing the ribbing from there.

Has plenty of growing room but I want that so it will still fit through next winter.
