Doris Chan Zodiac Sweater

I love this pattern. I think it's beautiful. Experimenting with different color, yarns, and hook sizes to see what I like best. I noticed on www.ravelry.com other crocheters have tempted to alter it for a larger size, but I'm trying to stick to the pattern so I can have one. My friend Trudy ;) bought the first one because it was too small for me. My boss wants one too. I'm using Red Heart I love this yarn before I move up to an alpaca or wool blend. The main reason behind using acrylic is availability. Anyways I have put the sweater
in my Etsy shop www.etsy.com

In order to make this sweater fit me, I had to go up to an I hook (chest 44). I love it!! I finally have one just like the one pictured. I wanted to use the same motifs as designed. I was worried it would come to my knees but the I hook worked wonderfully.
