Shawl Collar Sweater
Lion Brand® Moonlight Mohair
GAUGE: 14 sts + 20 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS). 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 fewer 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.

| Shawl Collar Sweater Reviewed by Evelyn M Buffone on 2010-06-04 |
 |
Beautiful sweater, but as a couple of others have mentioned, the collar is too bulky. The collar makes it a bit too warm around the neck, and if you don't like scratchy stuff, the bulkiness could make it uncomfortable. I made my version with full length sleeves and made it a bit longer, too.
I, too, get lots of compliments on this sweater when I wear it.
