Honestly, it wasn’t too difficult. I would say it’s an intermediate project. Just don’t sew the wrong sleeve on the wrong arm like I did the first time… and realize after you’ve notched and clipped and trimmed the excess. Oops. :)

Thanks, I’m enjoying the color too! It’s much needed when it’s so grey outside.
