A great pattern….very easy….good for newbee knitters …the end result is spectacular…the pattern produced just using knit and purl stitches is wonderful…I made the larger version which wraps around the neck twice very comfortably.. the yarn used is 35% superfine alpaca 20% wool 45% dralon… it felt a little ruff at first but after washing and blocking… ohh my it’s lovely and soft !! ….. another xmas present DONE !!
