This was so super fun to make and was really impressive to show off when I was done, but I worry that the swoncho style is a little impractical for actually wearing. My recipient was in another state so if I make something in this style for myself I might bring up the sleeve separation. I made it in KP comfy for washability.
I have made a Twigs pull over, which has similarly very low arm pits. It isn’t comfortable under a coat but that just means I only wear it in the fall/early spring when I don’t need the extra warmth, but it isn’t a huge issue. Looks great - did you just catch the floats?
Thank you! She put it on and put her arms up and it instantly went all over so I definitely see how it wouldn't work with coat sleeves. Yes I caught them (mostly) every 3 stitches or so.
