    Easy to make.
    The pattern is easy to understand, lot's of pictures and explanations. I love it. Good for using up all the scraps and pieces hiding in your yarn stash. ;-)

    Fehlerhafte Anleitung
    Also diese Anleitung ist schön im Endergebnis, wenn man von den Fehlern im Bart absieht. Wenn man das nämlich zusammenrechnet kommt man nicht auf 96 Maschen. Deshalb werde ich hier trotz des tollen Endergebnisses auch Punkte abziehen.
