Great, easy to follow instructions. I didn’t use mohair yarn and instead held double of a thinner yarn. I loved how the stripes came out. Kara always has the best tutorials and patterns! I had no problems following both the written pattern and the YouTube video. Can’t wait to make more stuff.

This pattern is awesome! The YouTube video really helped with the provisional cast on & any parts I was unsure of. The pattern is well written and easy to understand. I love this jumper so much! I’ve already started the Better Days Cardigan and am planning my next Better Days sweater :)
