Although I did not use the advertised yarn, a similar DK 100% wool yarn seems to be doing the trick for me. Haven't finished the sweater yet but the oversize fit on the model looks to be about what I will achieve, and the instructions and variations of the pattern are very good. I do love the effect of the blue dyed main colour and white contrasting pattern which gives it a lovely star-like visual on a denim like background due to the uneven dye in the wool. Serendipity at play here, so we'll see what I end up with. :)
