<div style="background-color:#ffffff">Hi Ramona,<br>
<br>
You knit two hexagons, sew the two hexagons together along one side, then on each hexagon you fold them in half (to make a partial square, think of a square with four quadrants and you will only have three of the quadrants), and last you can add cuffs to the
sleeves, a button band or trim, and you can also add to the length of the body if you want it longer.<br>
<br>
To picture how the design looks, think of the granny square. The center square is under the arm hole and the increasing frames go out to the body and up the lines. If you hold your arms straight out to the sides and parallel to the floor, the top of your arms
would be a straight line, your neck and the center of the back would be a straight line going vertical (they form a 90 degree angle at the center of your body).<br>

Are the hexigons just the design, or do you sew hexigons together to make the whole thing? That would be interesting to me, too, if it fits well. </div>

a coordinating color. Should be finish measuring and cast-on the swatch tomorrow. Hopefully, by next Saturday I will be able to start the project.<br>
