2013 #19 Raspberry's Green Hoodie


Yet another sweater for Little Miss Smiley.

I originally bought this yarn for a Bernat pattern.  When I looked at the pattern carefully , I wasn't sure that I liked the way the hood was constructed. So then I went on line and found this one and another also from Rowan. I felt that this one was more suited to the thicker yarn which I had bought.

I pretty much followed the pattern.  I just added a rib panel to each of the front pieces as I thought a completely plain front was boring.  I didn't add the pocket that was in the pattern either.  A simple pattern easy to follow.  I can see making more in the larger sizes.

I haven't used this yarn before.  It's an acrylic yarn which should wash well.  It was beautifully soft to work with and the finished garment feels lovely too.
