I needed a new hoodie, I wanted a more lightweight one. Very few knitting patterns for hoodies that are not worsted weight! I modified the pattern a lot, made it much longer, with the pockets below my waist where I like them. I also had the hood come straight out of the live neck stitches instead of binding off then picking up, it makes a nice smooth line and feels good. I had the front neck come up to just under my chin so it is warm. I call it Persistent Mint because I had to rip and redo many many times to make make the yarn last because of all the changes I made. I had 6 grams left over. I wore this constantly last fall and winter. The yarn is soft and not scratchy. The pattern was well written, I liked learning to knit set in sleeves without having to sew them in, and they fit well. I love the mods I made, it fits just how I like it. Love love love the pockets. It took me over a year to make, because I would rip back huge parts for fit or to stretch the yarn to last.
