I ordered Jenny's pattern wool kit from her website. Wow, this is some seriously soft wool! I dyed it with blue moon berry and iced blue lemonade kool aid.

I
the way this turned out.

Thanks! It's knit flat. I finally figured out how to do a good seam too! Wow, only took me 2 years.

Very cute!!! I have thought about doing that pattern but have been a little scared away because someone posted that there are more rows in the back than in the front, so they had a problem figuring out how to match up the 2 sides. I imagine you skip some rows from the back when seaming to make it work out?

I didn't do the pattern exactly. It's supposed to be partially felted and I didnt want to do that so I just went by how it looked. I took out a bunch of rows on the front and the back.

If you do it to pattern all you have to do is add a few extra stitches from the back when you sew one from the front. Does that make sense? Instead of grabbing one from the front and one from the back you grab one from the front and two or three from the back and treat them as one.
