Notes

**** February 2019 update:****

Unfortunately, I destroyed my Papa by accident and re knitted it again, but for some reason, I could see blips on the right side, even though I repeated the process exactly the way I did it first time.

Thanks to wollzausel for posting reference to this video , that shows a great way of dealing with long strands. Highly recommend it to everyone!

I decided to give it a try and making it again, 3rd time!


I wanted to make a summer version, so I used 2 strands of Anzula Breeze (blue and violet). The sweater grew a lot after washing, but I still like it. In spite of its oversize and weird construction, plus having it in one size for all, it’s very comfortable and pleasant to wear. Great design, clear pattern!
