Pattern Sizing:
Size 12
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
It goes together very quickly and is really comfortable.
Fabric Used:
Medium weight novelty knit.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I made view C but cut the length to view B.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
This is the second time I've made this. This pattern is perfect for the sweater knits you see in the fabric store. I would also recommend this for beginning sewers.

I like how your top turned out. The cowl doesn't look like it falls too low.
