Notes

My first time knitting a garment. I made it for 18 months because my gauge was off (smaller) by an inch and I wanted to make sure it was big enough. The pattern was confusing in places, but with a little help from friends, I did just fine.
I got a bit lazy towards the end and forgot about a buttonhole, hence, the funny spacing w/ the top 2 buttons.
The top collar seems very small, so if I were to make this again, I’d stop knitting a bit sooner.
All in all, a good knit and I learned a lot.

UPDATE: Sweater barely fit baby at 8 months…so I think the sizing is a bit off. It would have to be much thicker.
