Notes

It’s finished and it’s gorgeous! Sebi loves it very much!
This yarn couldn’t get any softer. I mean it. These were the softest skeins of Malabrigo i ever posessed. My sons asked me to make hats for them in the same yarn because it is OH SO SOFT!!!!!

March 1st
I am making one of these for my other son, and hopefully will be able to write up a pattern now!
It will be aged from 2-3 years to 12-14 (I hope!)
This is worked at a different gauge, so I have to recalculate the whole thing. I also need to sew the collar in a different way…
