I love this pattern! I made this as a wedding gift for my brother who got married in September. I would suggest doing the fringe when you have three balls of yarn left. This is a great pattern for beginners. I have to say that the needles get REALLY heavy after a while. And being 12, it took a while before I had all the yarn for this project. Besides the price of the yarn and how much yarn it uses, this pattern is great!
