Notes

I wasn’t sure how this rainbow-tastic yarn would translate into an actual wearable, but - hurrah! - the color pooling is pretty awesome. (Plus, Mom works with kindergartners, so the brighter, the better.)

Knit on Size 5 needles because my Size 6’s have gone rogue. Were I to knit this again, I’d definitely go with the larger needle.

Update (Mar 2018): Ma wore this to brunch today, and immediately netted a compliment from our waitress. Not too shabby for a seven-year old knit. :)
