I knitted it using Wendy Pampas Super chunky yarn which is an acylic (70%), wool (30%) mix. Being super chunky, it was very quick to knit. Another plus, there was no sewing up to do at the end as it was done on circular needles.
It was a bit of a shock to the system to go from super chunky to knitting with double knit yarn. It seemed so fine and it definitely doesn't grow so quickly. Never mind, perseverance is the key.
Thank you , Rudee, for organising the KAL

That turned out really well. Should be nice and warm. Plus the cowl neck will mean the itchy part won't be close to your skin!
It's so pretty, Jane! Chunky yarn can be really satisfying, don't you think? No seams? That's an added bonus.
Well done!
It is so beautiful! I really like you did the collar! I would never think that the yarn was chunky. You did an amazing job!
Ooh, it's lovely! I bet it's nice and warm and toasty, too, which is always a bonus in the fall :)
Good Morning Jane,
The Montana Tunic is great. You are a whiz with those needles, You family is very fortunate to have such a talented Mum. Hugs Judy
Thanks also for visiting my blog and leaving your lovely message for me to read.

You do such beautiful work!
Very nice, I have never mastered circular needles.
It looks fabulous. Love the fabric postcards you've been making too, especially the acorn ones. Enjoyed my catch up. :0)
