I made this pullover for my dad’s birthday, hence the name.
The specific brand of yarn might not be available in some countries.
For this pattern you’ll need:
Stitch markers, some stray pieces of a different yarn or stitch holder, a stitch counter and a cable needle. Also, I recommend that you use circular needles for this pullover.

This is a size large, I apologize for the strict sizing, but I’m still a beginner and don’t want to make up stitch number trying to guess what might make it medium or small etc.

Please feel free to contact me if something doesn’t work up in the pattern of for any other constructive opinions, notes and questions.

Tip:The honeycomb pattern looks grueling but it isn’t at all, particularly if you don’t hold the cable stitches on the cable while knitting but rather use the cable needle to hold the stitches, then re-arrange the stitches on the left needle in the cable order
