This piece seems to be going by very slow despite it’s “slip one, knit one” pattern. I’m just about halfway up the back piece still. The pattern gives for a very dense fabric or maybe it’s that I’m working with 4-ply as opposed to the 3-ply on the last sweater. I have some anxieties about it fitting. The stitches are hard to measure but they do have alot of streach to it. My husband is quite small so I think it should work out. I think I’ll have a better idea once this piece gets off the needles. Well, stay tuned!
