Notes

This is finally happening. Magic looping on a circular that is way too big.

2/6: I switched to a circular at some point and it’s going much faster. It looks a little roomy at this point, but I am on gauge, and picked a size that is about my actual measurements. The yarn is more variegated than I thought it would be, but it’s not a problem. About to start the body increases and finishing up the first skein.

2/15: Bound off the bottom using a contrast color, Opal Heather, I think. I used the non-rolling edging. It seems to still roll a bit, but I’ll see how it turns out after blocking. I started my first sleeve. It would have been nice if the pattern said how many stitches to pick up under the armpit.

2/22: It’s blocked, and the edges did stay a little flat. But it also looks pretty big. I’m not sure if it’s okay how it is, or if I should try to felt it a little.

I had the sweater folded before I took these pictures, thus the fold line down the front.
