Notes

Lovely, easy to follow directions and fun knit! :)

15Aug11 | Completed ribbing and almost done with the body

05Sep11 | This project has been in mini hibernation :) … Knitting the sleeves now.

28Sep11 | Joined the body and sleeves now working on raglan decreases. Photos to be uploaded soon.

05Oct11 | Final stretch, working on the hoodie (12”)
I wanted a less pointy hoodie & abit more rounded, so I modified the hoodie a tad (see below)

MODS
Hoodie | 116 sts

  • Work up 11in of the hood, in stockinette & cable opening.
  • Halved the hoodie sts (58 on each section half), separated by a stitch marker
  • NOTE: the hoodie shaping is worked over the last 11 rows; at the center of the stockinette portion of the hoodie, the cable pattern remains the same as in the pattern.
  • (RS) K all sts til 3 sts before the marker; M1R, K2tog, K1, SM, K1, SSK, M1L, K to end of Stocking St part, proceed with pattern.
  • (WS) Work as in original pattern
  • 3 needle bind off on the 2 halves of the hoodie beginning at the cabled end and working inward.
