Notes

8.28.2010
Swatching

17 rows broken rib = 2”

4.24.2011
Finally finished the first piece: the back. It’s only been nine months.

4.28.2011
Ugh. Was almost done with the fronts (doing two at a time) when I realized I forgot to do a decrease way back at the beginning. Frogged back to the ribbing before I thought it would be a better idea to just fudge it. Now I’ll be reknitting the fronts. At least they work up fast.

4.30.2011
Ok, all caught up (again). Now on to sleeves!

5.4.2011
Sleeve #1 done.

5.8.2011
Ready to start assembly!

5.9.2011
Set in sleeves and seamed sides today. Picked up all stitches for button bands.

5.11.2011
Button band is finished, used a US7 to bind off. Blocking (again) tonight and then looking for buttons tomorrow!
