The second time was definitely easier than the first. I guess I was too excited and didn&#8217;t read the pattern correctly the first time and made the increases around the collar too soon. The second time around, everything started to look right. Yay! I love this pattern so much!<\/p>\n<p>The only thing I did differently from EZ&#8217;s instructions &#8211; I put the two sleeves on waste yarn and finished the body first, then I picked up the sleeves and continued. I added seven stitches under the arms and they felt just right to me, not too bulky like a few people mentioned on Ravelry.  With more friends having babies this year, I think I&#8217;ll be making a few more of these EZ sweaters!<\/p>\n<p>:: :: ::<\/p>\n<p>Pattern from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0486241785?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=bellaceti-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0486241785\">Elizabeth Zimmermann&#8217;s Knitter&#8217;s Almanac<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ah, I finally figured out EZ&#8217;s pattern and finished my second February Baby Sweater!
