- A too-small sweater is traced to a flat-knit swatch being compared with a garment knitted in the round.
Field notes
The archive tracks numbered garments alongside charts, stitch gauge, yarn weights, evenings spent, and times unraveled. One entry explains that a double-plötulopi sweater came out a size too small because the gauge swatch was worked flat while the sweater was knitted in the round; another records measurements and gauge before and after washing. The homepage also lists current work on garment 18 and an Atom feed.
