Knit exactly to the pattern as I understood it. Not the most descriptive of patterns though! I did knit both fronts at the same time, and did a three needle cast off on the shoulders.
And now, I’m knitting with novelty yarn. I’m serious!

novelty yarn….hmmmm, am looking forward to seeing that – I think!!
