Fitted Knits Cozy Deep V-Neck Pullover

Pattern: Fitted Knits Cosy V-Neck pullover
Yarn: Cascade Pastaza - 70
Needles: Knit Picks Options size 9 & 7
Notes: I made the smallest size since I've been warned (and learned first hand) that the patterns run on the larger size. I had EXACTLY one ball of yarn left when completed. The only changes I made to the pattern was that I picked up 2 sts on each arm and knit them in the round instead of flat. Viola!
