Be sure to get seven skeins of yarn if you decide to do this sweater in Manos. I did the smallest size and with seven skeins I had a little bit left, but not a lot after completing the neck.

If I were to make it again, I would probably lengthen the body by an inch or two. I also wouldn't do the decreases in the neck because it leads to a little bit too narrow opening when you go to bind off. I bound off on larger needles.

I'm very happy with the sweater (it's warm and friendly on cold days, but the drapey sleeves prevent overheating indoors). However, at the gauge for this sweater, the Manos is getting a little fuzzy, so this sweater probably won't make it as a high wear, high durability garment.
