Notes

Very relaxing, clearly written and easy to follow pattern. Gauge was exactly right first time (we must knit the same!). Made a very wearable winter wardrobe staple. Looking forward to trying more of Bronagh’s patterns.

Originally started a size larger but I’m used to more fitted jumpers so went down one and used size to fit 36” (I’m approx 37.5” size 12 and the 4” ease was generous enough for me).

Didn’t do this one in my own yarns as I wanted to keep the natural shades and try out some Sirdar Saltaire in ‘Rabbit’ and ‘Stag’. With 55% Acrylic, 25% Nylon and 20% Alpaca, this is surprisingly soft to knit with and made for a practical, machine washable garment for the winter.
