It was always there, the favorite flannel. Made with so, so much love from that special person. Reliable and trustworthy, like the threadbare stuffie. Waiting to be thrown on for a family movie night in, dressed down and burrowed under layers of blankets on a perfectly broken in couch. For hiding beneath the blanket fort as thunder rumbled, or for the first day of school. Perfectly bumpy and comfy, it met well with grass stained knees and hands holding mud, frogs, flowers, and other various treasures. This sweater, this sweater was special. Simultaneously new, simultaneously familiar, and always comforting.

Sweater is worked from the top down, flat to start and then joined in the round at front when neckline shaping is completed. Please slip all markers as you come to them throughout the pattern.
