wow, that's looking great Linz! And glad everyone else is getting on so well.
I frogged mine last night. I made a complete mess up somewhere and just looked at it and decided that actually I didn't like the yarn or the colour and I've got too much else on the go anyhow   But I really like the pattern so I might have another go at it at some point when I'm less overwhelmed by everything else.
Very much looking forward to seeing all of yours though

Front bands
Rejoin yarn to bottom of first front, and work in 2 single crochet to each row along front edge,
1DC per stitch around neckline (working 3 stitches into corner stitches) and 2 DC per row
down second front. Repeat until front band is desired width adding buttonholes, or button
loops as required.
Finishing
Weave in loose ends and block
Right now is this wrong or do we actually only do DC (trebles) up one side, around the neck and then only SC (doubles) down the other side??
won't this make one side wider than the other????....i'm thinking of doing trebles all the way round  fuddled...it don't take much!

How's everyone doing on this? I did another row yesterday evening only to have to frog it all because I'd made a mistake on the row before (again!) Every row I do I seem to have to rip back.... will I ever make progress??
However I'm really enjoying doing this and I already have one in charcoal DK in mind if I ever finish this one!
