Finished
I was was VERY afraid I had GROSSLY miscalculated sizing, but my sweater sizing improved greatly after washing. I did modify the sleeves by picking up 38 stitches on the inside cuff right at the point where reverse stockinette becomes regular stockinette. I knitted 2 rows and then purled 13 rows. This gives the sleeves a little flare without having to attach any gauzy material. My arms are quite long anyway so the extra couple inches feels much better. I tried waiting for better lighting, picture wise, but it never came.....
Well, the body is done! I was uncertain how loose/tight fitting I wanted it so I went 2" more than actual bust measurement. Hopefully I guessed correctly. Now I have moved onto the arms, and they are coming right along. I'm knitting both at once to be VERY sure they are exactly the same. Seems to work well. Am I really supposed to wash and block before assembling? I am also using the Kid Classic in nightly, and am very pleased with my color choice. No pictures today though, I left the house too early for there to be enough light to do my project justice.
Just started
I am pleasantly surprised by this yarn, it's so soft! I was nervous because it had nylon in it (unnatural fibers being the devil to me) but I think it will turn out okay.
