Oh I love it! I hope to try it after I finish the latest pair of socks on the needles.
Great pattern and wonderful choice of yarn. But one question - why publish the pattern details but format it so that it's difficult to copy to a more print-friendly format? Just curious.
Thanks though for sharing your work.
This looks like a great pattern. I have one question, though. In the last pattern row, before purling around and binding off, if you k2, then k2tog k2 around, won't the decreased number of stitches make it too tight to put over your head?
Hi KimW,
you make a good point. The Boyfriend had no problem slipping it on and off. If you'd rather just Knit a row that would work too. Hope you enjoy knitting it.
