Notes

I found this pattern to be a little difficult just in how it was written. I bought this pattern to use in the Aran sweater pullover class at Fibre Space in Alexandria. I learned how to do a saddle shoulder (so not intimidating as I thought it would be) and managed reading two charts at once.

Modifications:

  • I also shortened the sleeves since handmade sweaters can get a bit on the hot side.
  • I did a 2x2 ribbed edging on the bottom and on the sleeves.
  • I did a single row crochet edging around the neckline.

I don’t know if I’d make this particular pattern again but I would definitely make this type of sweater again.
