Thoroughly enjoyed making this -
Using a bulky yarn (almost 14 skeins of Wool Ease acrylic ) and size L hook, this came out just like the picture. The written directions were hard to follow and found a couple possible errors (could be I read it wrong) that would have ruined the overall end look - so go to the Bernat site and get the diagram !! Added a sc to the end row, then went back and added a hdc and sc to the beginning row to even out the pattern.
Don’t mind the tails, they will get tended to this evening…
My little one has already claimed this as “His” -
