NOTES

This is a knit that I cast-on due to podcast watching.

FINAL THOUGHTS

  • Modifications were really important for me for this knit.

    • I did not like the look of the turtleneck on me, so I modified it to be a wide scoop neck.

    • I knit to a size that matched an already owned garment. A lot of trying on - trial and error.

    • I did not knit a cropped length, and extended the body by about 3-4”

    • I added short rows to the bust and darts to the back.

    • I mirrored the sleeve twisted rib design at both waist sides.
