I made a few mods, or I should say... ahem, I glanced over the pattern, got the gist of top-down construction (my first, it rocks!) and sort of knitted on, making it up. Obvious changes were the two small pom-poms instead of tassels, and ribbed border instead of garter stitch.
And I think I got a little carried away with the top pom-pom, using up almost half a skein just for that, but I like the fact that it looks so obvious you couldn't just walk past and ignore it! |
