well it is done.


alterations to the original lion brand pattern

worked to 17.5in in length.

shaped waist with 2 sets of ssk & k2tog closest to arm hole split.

pattern:
- -II- -II pm - -II- -II
1st decrease:
- -II-II m -II- -II
2nd decrease:
-II-II m -II-II

Added the increase stitches to the next 2 inches (adding back the lost purl stitches)

started to knit the front bands with buttonholes but ripped them out. the holes were lost and i did not feel like reinforcing them~ decided to add pearl snaps instead.
