Hannah's arm and yoke modifications
We share our experiences knitting the Rocky Coast Cardigan, the good and the bad, yarn substitutions that worked well and not so well. Overall, we both love this sweater, and would knit it again. The recent modifications by Hannah should improve the overall fit, and we do note that the older sizing was problematic, especially in the arm snugness. Sharlene recommends checking the arm circumference when picking a size!
