Sleeve: pick up 7 underarm stitches, knit 7 pattern repeats plus 5 rounds counter should read 6/8
Seeta fingerless gloves 2 (purple)
looks like my previous version was made on #3 needles; this time I’m going to try the 2.5s that the pattern actually calls for. (after messing up the pattern repeat and ripping back, decided to cast back on with 3s, as it seemed pretty small with 2.5)

4 pattern repeats up to the gusset
2 pattern repeats thru the gusset
2 pattern repeats post-gusset
8 rounds stst for thumbs

They are a tiny bit small, still not sure if #3s would have been too big

Using reclaimed yarn from the Owligan.
Tried gauge swatch on pattern needles (10.5) – row was fine, stitch was about a half-inch small (I think).
Gauge swatch on 11s seems to be the right stitch gauge but row gauge is a bit big. Will need to compensate on sweater length.

Discovered that I did the “brk†(half-brioche?) wrong through the entire knitted flat section — it looks “twisted†in comparison to the rows in the round. Probably going to keep going anyway! The only place where the switch should be noticeable is on the upper back. 
Also, I think the sleeves might be a smidge small but I don’t want to make the v-neck any lower — might try a suggestion I got from Ma’ayan about getting a few extra stitches added when picking up sleeves.

After doing the half-brioche inside out during the bust dart, I ripped the whole thing back to start over.
February 10, 2021
Had to do one extra round after sleeve separate rounds in order to not do the half-brioche inside out!!!!
Also, starting triangle detail after only 2 rows of body pattern because my row gauge is long. (Looks like it will be 7+ inches to do the whole triangle detail, which is if anything longer than I was thinking I wanted)

Picked up sleeve, added 5 st instead of 3
February 18, 2021
First sleeve finished at row 7 of repeat 6, about 36 gr of the former-hat yarn remaining
February 21, 2021
Went down to #10 needles for neck finishing. Used up almost the whole amount of reclaimed yarn, only scraps left!

Note to other knitters: I rarely block cowls, but this one really benefits from it.
An October Day
tried casting on with 10s and it was very tight, much more comfortable to knit and a nicer drape on 11s.

On pause while waiting for longer interchangeable cable (50â€)

I currently have: 214 stitches on the needle, and about 130 yards left of 547 total. It’s about 27†long and 60†wide
Need to have multiple of 6, so I THINK it will work if I don’t do 2 of the decreases in the first row of the edging.
October 13, 2020
Nope, my math was wrong (not only does the whole thing need to be divisible by 6, but each side needs to be divisible by 6 as well)
For other people checking on projects: your final row needs to be a number where (stitches-6)/2 is a multiple of six. (I THINK this is where the instruction of “after row 3†is important?)
But I should be able to manage it by decreasing 4 in the first edging row – two on each side, so probably turn one k1 into a k2tog at each end and right before the center panel
(I’m also wondering if somewhere I got my increases wrong somewhere in the body, since all the math seems to be slightly janky?)
