Notes

MODS:

-- Rt front: I put sts on scrap yarn and did a three needle bind off when binding off for the back

-- Back: In addition to the three needle bind off for the right side, I put 18sts on scrap yarn for the left shoulder.


08/26 - drawstring done! I didn’t count the number of chains, I just chained until I though it was long enough. This is sooooo very cute! I love it! Just needs a blocking. That top pic is not a great pic of me…another crappy self portrait but I just loved the sky.

08/25/10 - knitting is all done! I love it! I just need to make the drawstring and weave in ends.

08/23/10 - finished up the shoulders and one sleeve! It’s so cute I can hardly wait to finish!

08/22/10 - Finished with the back and did a three needle bind off on the right shoulder. I’m hoping to finish this by the end of the week!

08/21/10 - Picked this up again last night after a week off doing other stuff. This is such a quick knit. I finished the right front and I am now half way thru the back…in just one day.

08/14/10 - Finally finished the first skein! I am just shy of the 2nd neck decrease.

08/10/10 - Decided I didn’t like the aran weight. So I splurged and got this yarn from BT’S destash. I love it! It’s perfect!

Ok…trying to use stash so I went with this which is heavier. So I’m knitting the small size and upping the needle hoping to make this work.

08/08/10 - Super fast knit and easy to memorize pattern. I finished the second skein which got me to 9 inches.
