I loved the colors for a little one, she has so much pink and blue I thought this sweater jacket for fall and winter would look terrific. I also loved Berroco yarns for this pattern.

Downloaded this freeby recently for my Mum (an experienced knitter) to knit for my Granddaughter. She asked me to comment on the fact that it's listed as an easy knit when, in fact, some instructions would not be understood by a novice:
There is no key for abbrieviations,
Instructions for the body section using a circular needle do not tell you to turn the work around at the end of each row,
There is no instruction on when or whether you should sew up the shoulder or how to work the sleeve in.
Please could anyone tell me how they got hold of the alternative instructions?
Sorry to moan. Maybe this is why the pattern was free!
