Notes

The neck directions require more concentration than I have to spare with 2 Littles dashing around the room, so it took longer than it should have to get going, and I had to rip out 10 rows and start again after I misinterpreted the v-neck modification, but the fault was all mine. Then I knit 20 rows before I suspected my math on the sleeve sts was off - it was - I calculated them as 1/4 the neck sts instead of 1/4 the back sts. ARG! Ripping out again, but it really is beautiful and the problem is my inability to concentrate, not the pattern.

I’m knitting this sweater in broken rib st. Looks so delicious with this yarn.

Since the sleeves are relatively short, I modified the decreases to one decrease on every-other row in order to get small enough for the cuff.

I didn’t do any ribbing at the bottom or the cuffs, as the entire sweater is in broken rib stitch. The neck stitches are also knit in broken rib. I had about 1 meter of yarn remaining for this sweater (~24 month size) - phew! Turned out cute. I’ll use this pattern again.
