Changed to testing zone :slight_smile:

I love all about this. I love knitting and wish I could test this. Unhappily I’ve never done a one piece sweater before, or a top to bottom one, and don’t have the right yarn, otherwise I would apply. I made baby blankets and baby clothes for my children but that’s most of my experience. I wish you all the good luck!
