Snug as a bug!
All stitched up and ready for the chilly winds we've had recently...
The West Side Raglan, pattern by Oat Couture, was a really straight forward and pleasant knit. I love the raglan/ squarish neckline as I look a right eejit in a high or polo neck style - curses for short necks;) I loved the Manos del Uruguay and will be looking for other projects to knit in this yarn again.
Modifications:
Body: knitted the body in the round to avoid as much seaming as possible and added 2" to body length
Sleeves: shortened the proposed length slightly as I hate it when the sleeve extends beyond my upper wrist.
Craftybernie, I followed your guidance and am ALL clickable this post ... you're a star! Thank you:)

It is georgeous!! :)
very pretty! very autumnal.
That looks lovely. i have not used manos yarn but did do a So Called Scarf recently that uses it in the original pattern. That would be a nice one to try.
Lovely - very nice neckline - I'm not a high neck gal either ;o)
Love it, and adore the colours of the yarn.
I've never figured out how to do the clickable links thing! :)
Tht is lovely Angie, such lovely Autumnal colours.
I have a couple of Oat Couture patterns which I must get on with!
Fab!!
oooh that looks wonderful, I love the colours. I hate high necks too, they make me feel claustrophobic!
Oh I'm riggwelter by the way, I'm obviously signed into the wrong gmail account! d'oh!
