"You are knitting 4 identical panels, sewing the cast off edges together to create the shoulders, then sewing a seam down the middle back and both sides to create the sweater. The blocking is to ensure all the pieces come out to the same size before sewing, the collar/neck is simply folded back at the neck line."
Lisa
"The pattern calls for a 15mm 19US needle not a 15 US needle which would be a 10 mm as noted here on all free knitting."

"This pattern was in an email for "brand new" patterns, but the yarn has been discontinued for 8-10 years."

"You could follow the directions as written but change the knit 5" to knit 7 to 8" and just not do the fold at the bottom, since typically slouch hats are at least 12" tall, however this yarn is a bulky and the recommended substitute yarn is super bulky on very small needles, so even altering the pattern is probably not going to give you the result you want."
Lisa
"The pattern specifies which yarn to use for each section, so when you see "with yarn b" in the instructions, that is the yarn you will use until you are instructed to change to a different colour. The pattern also specifies which stitches to use line by line for each section. Based on your questions this may be a pattern that you may not be quite ready for since it is an intermediate pattern that you do need to have a decent amount of knitting experience to complete the project."

The Easiest Shawl

"Every knitter needs a project so easy they can knit it in front of the TV and not worry about making a mistake. This is that project. I set out to see how big a garter stitch shawl one of those Caron Cakes would make (it’s just under 400 yards). Using ALL of the yarn and size 9 needles, it came out to be 50″ across tip to tip, and 20″ top to bottom. The worsted weight yarn worked great with the size 9 needles, giving it drape and not stiff, but not too open either. You can use any size yarn you like, just make sure to use needles appropriate to the yarn. This makes a great stash buster project if you switch colors every few rows!"

Yes this shawl is easy but the colors used make it look anything but easy. Thank you for the suggestions, including the one about the different colored markers. How generous of the designer for doing that! This will go on my list, not only because it is easy but I love shawls. It is great to make for the charity knitting as well. Thank you!
