So when I finished the Cocoon sweater for the hubster, I was left with 3 and half balls of wool. So I started a hat for him... but I'll still have two balls of wool left. I was hunting for a new project for me, and came across this pattern. I just need 2 more balls. Bargain! So I've finished it now. I'm a size 10 so I went for the second size, but I lengthened the sleeves and body. Glad I did. It's still a tight fit. Probably a junior size in pattern form. The cowl stitch pattern was interesting. I googled it to check. Wish I'd cast off in a loose stitch. I cast off in pattern and it seems a tad tight for a cowl... But it looks ok.
