Wool-Ease® Thick & Quick®
GAUGE: 9 sts and 14 rows = 4 in (10 cm) in St stitch pattern (knit RS rows, purl WS rows) using size 10½ needles. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you less stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
NOTES: In this pattern, the larger size needles are used for the cuff and collar ribbing. The smaller size needles are used for the body parts knit in stockinette stitch.

A little disappointed with how it came out, there is no "elasticity" in it and therefore it can stretch quite larger than the size knitted, ie the sleeves and collar.
But very very quick to knit up I did it in 2 evenings!!
