Excellent Pattern!

I am really impressed with the quality of this written pattern as well as the video tutorial. Both are clear and detailed. I am not done with my striped cardigan yet, but it's coming together nicely (though I'm not so sure about my choice to use up yarn I already have with individual stripes!)... so many tails to sew in!! My advice would be to buy self-striping yarn like she does in the video.

Have to watch video to make it work... :(

I like the pattern but the written instructions are not complete. It literally does not tell you to make a whole side before doing the neck area. I had to frog a few rows when I realized it didnt work. And then go watch the video again. You should not sell a written pattern that does not include all steps. Not everyone can or wants to watch a video to figure it out. I wouldn't recommend this to a beginner for that reason. Even though the pattern is easy.

Fast, easy sweater

Just finishing up the collar trim and I will be finished. It's only been 2 or 3 days working on it off and on. Sometimes I'm in the mood for a pattern that has no complicated stitch patterns. This one fits the bill but is still a nice looking project. Can't wait for cooler weather so I can wear it. Might be a while here in Louisiana.

So easy to follow

Only a few places a tutorial would be nice, not sure how to find those from the paper I printed out, maybe the link had those, my lack of investigation I'm sure. I am using double size 3 yarns to get a fuller blanket feel, and with even that the sizing has been completely amendable. Love this pattern!! I am even making bead top chopsticks (thanks for the suggestion in your video) instead of buttons.

Missing step

My download seems to be missing step 2, it goes straight from the first row of DC after the DC foundation chain, to the row where you start to form the neck. I had to go to the tutorial video to figure out the missing part.
