Drum Roll Please............................

The BIG Tah-Da!!!!

I don't know why it's SO big! I did use a hook size smaller than suggested, and I did add a little in length, but gosh, it's so BIG! Wishing I had blocked it, at least the bottom squares. I managed to get the 13 year old to model it, lol. She wasn't happy. She is about 5' 6" or 7" tho, and probably the same size as the model in the pictures I made this by, so WHY is it so BIG?!
