a simple mock neck in chunky merino. i treated myself to a ready-made pattern; this one from Classic Knits by Erika Knight. picked as an easy project to make while traveling in India. highly impractical because of the bulky yarn and how much space it took up in my baggage, but so fun and quick to knit. finished on long walks here in Bovina.
