Not a whole lot to report on this one. Very easy to make and instructions are fine. You might want to experiment with the collar though because it's pretty big. This would be great with something silky and light as pictured in the magazine. I used a cheap cotton knit from Fabric Mart that has a little body to it and the collar sort of stands up. I like it, but it might bother some. I also made this from a really nice zebra print knit also from Fabric Mart.
Like the other reviewers said, this is a great basic turtleneck pattern and I am very happy with the fit. No alterations necessary (I made a 40). I'll definitely make this again.
Hans got a new turtleneck with the leftover fabric and wears it daily, although he recently tore a hole in it. Ingrate!
