Feedback:

1/ I expected a lot of stitch counting and track keeping because of the texture yoke and the incease. However, it was quite the opposite. Very easy to keep track of where I was at when knitting the yoke.
2/ I do not have a lot of experience knitting anything texture/fancy stitches so I was a bit nervous. But once I made one repeat, the rest just become quite easy.
3/ Addictive yoke!
4/ Beautiful sweater, very carefully written and easy to understand pattern.
5/ One underrated thing about a Lily’s Pattern is the yarn choice and construction explanation. I love that the designer always explains how the piece is supposed to fit, and what type of yarn/alternative can give you the intended fit.

Overall a very fun knit and is surprisingly not at all hard. I definitely recommend this design for intermediate/confident beginners.
