The pattern is Oatmeal Pullover by Jane Richmond on Ravelry and I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease Chunky in Walnut. I think I might make this again but make some changes. I made the size 40" chest because there were many comments on how tight the arm circumferences were so this sweater didn't turn out as fitted as I had hoped. I also didn't make the sleeves long enough so I'm constantly tugging on them, which makes the boatneck collar pull down further. I'm not a fan of how loose the neckline is, but that's my fault I think! All in all, a decent first adult sized sweater. I learned a lot and my second sweater fits nicely. (I haven't taken pictures of that one yet -- waiting for warmer weather!)
