Summer Fjord sweater

Knitting Notes

This was as far as I got on the large size of the Summer Fjord sweater. When I tried it on, the neckline was just huge. It’s supposed to be on the looser side, but this was fall off both my shoulders loose. So I frogged it, and am going for the medium. This may
