Notes

I will say that this to start: is a pretty freaking awesome pattern. I adore it, and despite my hatred of fun-fur type yarns I would make it again with some modifications for me. (Large head + a lot of hair = this hood is too small as written).

The base pattern I would say is written for a petite individual in terms of head size.

As it stands, I did one extra repeat of the main cable pattern on the body, and that was not large enough for me. Next time I make this, I will do 2 repeats of the cable patter and it should be fine.

I also need to find a way to make the faux fur trim fuller. It looks very sad on mine and I do not know how to fix that.
