Notes

My Camp Loopy Project for June 2015.

In retrospect, I’d do things a little different -- I’d make the sleeves a bit bigger in diameter. They are (and are designed to be) rather fitted. The body of the sweater is quite wide so the sleeves start at about the elbow and go from elbow to wrist. It’s just personal preference -- I don’t like tight sleeves.

Although this is knit in cotton, I don’t think I’d be comfortable wearing it in summer -- the tight sleeves would bother me in heat and humidity. But I’ll give it a try when the weather is cooler.

I added some length to my sweater. I do like the construction and think it very clever. I could see me knitting another one with re-engineered sleeves!
