Do you have an estimate of how much yarn this takes? I wear a small/ medium but I want to make xl for really oversized lol but it depends on how much yarn you think it’ll take :blush:

Omg! That’s so cute! I would like to make it, but I can’t so just one question: Will it be free?

With the calculations i made, it is 1200g,but then it is not oversized and also a short version. So to be sure maybe 1500g :smiling_face:

It is not going to be free. But 6.9 eur i was thinking, so still cheap!

I just got the idea, that you could try make it with a thicker yarn to get an oversized one :)

Hi. @Healthyyarn, I don’t usually make clothes, but I’m learning too! I’m currently making a dress for meself, and I bet a sweater would be fun too. I would probs make it with thin plush yarn for extra warmth. The color would be like an ombre-type yarn of blues, purples, teals and whites. I would also be making it in child 10-12, because I’m small, and plush yarn would make it a little bit bigger, right? Okay, I admit it, I don’t know much about this. But I would love to give it a try. I’m really hoping you’ll give me a chance. :) it would mean a lot. It’s due on the 15th of Feb, right? I can make that work.
(Srry 4 this extemely long message)
Still, I would love to test with the yarn i mentioned and probably like a 5 mm hook?

(also, would u be willing to give extensions if Needed?)

Please consider me.

Hey! That sounds good! I need one to make that size also, and if you make it in thicker yarn it will work to see if it gets a good bigger fit for you . :blush: i will approve.

Yes i will be willing to give extension if needed. Im new to making pattern also so i really hope it is a good working pattern! And with no errors, but that is to see now during the test period. :blush:
