Notes

The sweater turned out much shorter than anticipated. I was not able to size it on my mom, though, as it’s a surprise.

Something strange happened with the lace at the bottom - I frogged back a few times, but was never able to figure it out.

I added extra length to the sleeves, as my mom prefers a longer sleeve than cap length. It was easy enough - just started with the smaller size and increased until I hit the number of stitches needed.

This was my first sweater…as first sweaters go, I guess it turned out okay?
