    Hi Heidi,

    Can you recommend a yarn for the oversized sweater that is more economical? The yarn in the pattern is 12.50 a skein —- $125 for a sweater is too much…..

    thanks!

      This is just a pattern I like – I’d recommend visiting the pattern designer’s site (linked in the post) for a recommendation.

    It has been a few decades since I knit a sweater. Thank you for this I think I am going to make one for myself! Who knows if it works I may make a gift or two. Thank you for sharing.
