    About

    Up 1 needle size to get gauge. Gauge is 19 x 28 prewash, 18.5 x 25 after washing.
    This is a well designed pattern. Underarm holes are minimal where sleeves join to the body and the buttonhole technique produced the tidiest little buttonholes I’ve ever made.
    Modification: The pockets looked sloppy, so I redid them using a different method. I reknit the body plain, without pockets, then picked up 19 stitches and knitted stockinette for 20 rows plus 5 rows 1x1 ribbing (as in Tin Can Knits Gramps pattern).
