Pattern: CustomFit
Yarn: Woobu in Corbie
Needles: US6
Notes: I didn't have a lot of yarn so I monkeyed with the CustomFit program for a while making the sleeves longer and shorter, making the body longer and shorter and playing with how open the fronts should be. The resulting pattern had 16 stitches worth of space between the front edge and the front shaping. I used Up, Down, All-Around Stitch Dictionary to find a stitch pattern to plunk in there (Eyelet Crescents). I mirrored the pattern on the two fronts. I would have loved to have made the fronts wide enough to meet in the center but I didn't have enough yarn and wasn't interested in a sweater that was any shorter or had short sleeves.
I put the following choices into CustomFit.
