Wonderful Wallaby?

Has anyone made this sweater? I have the pattern, started it last
night. So far everything looks good, but there appears to be some
weirdness with the hood. Comments?

I have made several Wonderful Wallabys, and never noticed anything weird
about the hood. Mind you, it is not my favourite pattern, but once it is
knitted, it is done, which I like. g

It is a hooded sweater with a pocket. Knit in the round from the
bottom up, hood is knit on, sleeves are knit separately and sewn on
(but I'll be knitting mine on from the shoulder down, I *hate* sewing)

If you google for "wonderful wallaby sweater" you should turn up a
source for the pattern.

Hi Gwen,
Obviously, I'm not Slinky (oh dear, now I've got an earworm... I'm not
Slinky... to the tune of I'm Not Lisa by Jessie Colter)
Anyway, I would assume you're correct, the pocket resembles a pouch!
Big smile,
Hugs,
Noreen

Years ago i sewed Drora my daughter a Kanguro made of Cordroi pieces
and so was the Joey , of course my figures came from the Disney
version on POE the bear. Several years ago when She had a concert tour
in Australia , she was so lucky that a Huge Kangaru crossed their way,
she was so excited that she told it to the Audience , and somebody
from them unvited her the next day to see a farm where they took care
of the Orpahan Joeys ,,, She is still talks about it.

Noreen I do not think my design ability would come up to this - besides
Wallabys are too common - even if they are the cutest things God Bless
