I made this for Me

    About

    Absolutely delighted with this! I spent a lot of time looking at other peoples projects and took lots of hints from their notes.
    I made the shoulders 14 st wide rather than the 7 called for in the pattern
    I added another 2 colour bands to the length as I wanted it to be hip length
    I cut and sorted the Zauerball before starting the colour bands - the cut lengths didn’t always reach across 2 rows but I don’t mind a bit of random colourwork!
    Will definitely make another.
