Have been crocheting for years. Made this just like the directions said with a J hook and used the largest size. I have been reading patterns for years and when it was finished it barely fit my 2yr old. I was hoping to make one for me. Not going to do it in a larger size. Too much work for something so small. Can make a baby sweater in less time.
