Notes

Excellent, easy, well-written pattern.Works up fast & will definitely make again. Sweater is cozy & comfortable yet elegant. Have been wearing non-stop, especially during single digit temperatures.

Longstanding stash yarn, just the right quantity, gauge was spot on & very glad it’s used up. Was lucky to have 10.75 (7mm) knitters pride interchangeable on hand. Color is much more brown than in photos, the selfie closely represents true color.

Chose split hem option & followed Jennifer Dassau’s twin-stitch directions for short rows.
