What would be a good yarn to use other than wool?? I live in Louisiana an wool would be too warm. I'm anxious to get started.

Just started this pattern but think i am going to love it. Very snuggly

I also seen this pattern and want to make it for me and friends. I believe if you make the rectangle larger the rest will finish up as pattern states.

I have not made this yet, but, it caught my attention right away. I wasn't even looking for this but I can't wait to make it. My question is this: I am an ample woman and, normally, "one size fits most" is so small I couldn't even get the two fronts to meet! This is a pattern that looks like it is easily up-sizeable. The description reads that it is a rectangular shape with armholes. Can it be up-sized to fit a 4X or more? Any ideas? thanks

I love this pattern! It is so simple to follow, and you can try out various yarns to see which ones suit you best. I first tried it with what the suggested yarn in the pattern, but wool and I do not agree. I also followed instructions to the T, and I tend to crochet loosely, so it was much larger than I intended. I've crochet 6 of them so far. Love it! Each one is unique. I love bright colors so chose some that were brighter. I also tried a bright medium worsted color, and it turned out perfect as far as size. I used a double strand of yarn. However, this yarn pills far too much. I have used two cake yarns and the color Crayon Box. The first one I messed up on the Crayon Box. This second one I took out all the pink and love it! However, I could have shortened the rows by about 6, I think. The Crayon Box yarn tends to stretch more, I believe. Maybe I will try it with an N hook next time. Yes, there will be a next time! I wish we could post pictures of this finished here! Nanc
