and I couldn't be happier! Now I wonder if it will fit? This weight
yarn and needle combination produced a toddler sized sweater. Do you
think that worsted yarn on 8's or so would make a sweater for a 5 or 6
year old? Has anyone made the adult version? It was so much fun! I
didn't know 'where' I was on the sweater until the button holes.

I have no idea, but I looked at what I could find about that pattern on
the internet and had a stroke of genius -- I discovered that what it is
is a basically a bog coat. I made a little paper bog coat and taped it
together, then I cut the top sleeve and shoulder line open and ended up
with exactly what that piece of knitting looks like before it's
assembled. Pretty amazing, that. (I ordered the pattern.)

Welcome, Joan. Great job on the sweater. I remember my first one - for
the
entire time I was knitting it, I thought that someone was playing a
cruel joke
on me.
Higs,
Katherine
