I love this! :heart_eyes: My hubby works outside in the winter and this would be perfect for him! :grinning: I am sorry I do not have any time to test knit right now because I am working on the last lesson of my course. I’d love it if you could let me know when the pattern goes live. :grinning:

It’s lovely! :hearts:
Thanks for the mention. Unfortunately, I’m an accountant headed in to tax season.
Unless it requires a PC & calculator, it would never be completed timely.

it’s easier for a crocheter to learn to knit continental style knitting, We hold our yarn in our left hand and pick our yarn through with the needle in our right hand. Continental is called picking and the English style is called throwing. Look some youtube videos up on continental style knitting.

That’s how I learned, I used to only crochet and was convinced I couldn’t knit until I tried continental!

It looks amazing! I wish I was more advanced in knitting so I could help test it out. Good luck though.
