Notes

Sep 28th Washed and let dry lying flat - really like it! Not as wide as I thought, length is good, also sleeves are full sleeves after washing which I prefer! Really nice project, will probably make more. Might add photos with a different T-Shirt underneath - red is not the best choice here, I think.

Sep 26th Finished 2nd sleeve - I had to cheat a little, did only 5 rows of the 14th decrease and have about 2 metres of yarn left -puh! Quite like it so far, though it will need to even out , when washed and blocked. A little on the wide side, though, should have stayed with M1, maybe even with small. Well, I guess this will not be my last Vitamin D!
Sep. 21st Finished 1st sleeve
Sep 19th Started first sleeve- have only 75g left, hope this will be enough - want to make slightly longer sleeves than given in pattern.
Sep 18th Finished front garter borders - also did these with 2.5 mm needles, but picked up 5 stitches, then leaving 2 unworked instead of using the method given in the pattern - Looks ok to me as well.
Sep 17th Finished Body - did not do a full 4th increase, but did the garter band with 2.5 mm needles 5 rows after last yarnover. Looks ok to me so far. Used a tiny Little bit more than 200g for the Body.
Sep. 12th Finished 2nd lower front increase rows - did 9 instead of 7 rows inbetween due to different row gauge. Quite like this construction, fun to knit, though quite loooong rows now. Nevertheless, was able to finish 1 complete set (10 rows) in 1 evening.
Sep. 10th Finished 2nd set of short rows while watching “Pretty Woman” for the millionst time on TV - hach…
Sep. 7th: Seperated sleeves from body
