Gofleido shrug
This is a beautiful shrug; however I found the pattern to be very complicated for something that should be very easy. The first one I knitted to was too short (cuffs above my elbows ) because of the confusion in changing colors and going back and forth from changing colors (MC is a certain color; then MC is a different color). The “repeats” have “repeats” within them. My first one had to be ripped out; I started another one trying to be more focused on the changes, and I’ve still lost my place. I’ll probably just try to adapt the pattern to something I can understand.
Horrible fit!
The instructions were excellent and easy to knit. However, after I was finished knitting this (which took hundreds if not thousands of hours to knit!) and tried it on, the sleeves were 3/4, not full sleeves and while the rest of it was long enough, it slipped off my shoulders and since there was no way to even use a shawl pin to hold it up, because of the design, I will now have to rip it all out! The model wearing this is posed in so many positions, which is nice to really be able to see how the garment is worn, but upon a closer look, you can see it barely stays on her shoulders and one photo it is off her shoulders entirely. It looks beautiful, but just sadly cannot be worn. I guess I will stick to knitting scarves and shawls that can be worn easier and where I can add a shawl pin if needed. It was a great idea, but sadly not in theory. Even if the sleeves came out longer, it would not have made a difference to the fit on my shoulders, since the front is so open as you can see and there is nothing keeping this on the shoulders.

Haven't made the end product yet but reading through the pattern I'm impressed with the method and details of writing. Look forward to creating soon!

Great stash buster. I got the pattern to use up some acrylic yarn for a house sweater for cold nights. Easy to follow and just what I was looking for. Thank you!

The pattern is very easy to follow, I just started making the 'shrug'. I'll send a picture when it's finished.

I love the simplicity of this pattern. It makes it easy to modify it to be your own. I am using a variegated color progression in a mohair blend with larger needles with the smallest size pattern to make an oversized large shrug that should be cozy on these chilly days....
Pattern is good
Loving making it.
Gofleidio
Not yet started. Waiting for the yarn. But will start asap. Looks really beautiful. Thank you!!!
Gofleidio
Not only does it look cozy, I enjoy having my vocabulary expanded when patterns are titled with unfamiliar (to me, at least) words
Beautiful shrug pattern
The pattern is so beautiful and so nicely explained that even beginners can make it
Golfeido
A very easy pattern, but has its special combination with colors, so even if you're not an expert, you can make a unique garment. Comfortable when it's not clear wheter it's cold or warm outside, and it doesn't fall off your shoulders!
Gofleidio Sweater
Nice pattern and a very simple knit. I have a sweater with the same shape and wanted to knit one out of a different yarn and this one is perfect. Really easy to adjust size. I am making mine in one color, Penguin North DK, and I know it will be a go to sweater.

Just received the yarn for this pattern, it look and feels yummy! Can't wait to start.

Love the look of the pattern - so far easy to follow
Gofleidio pattern
Simplicity at it's finest. Easy to follow pattern no matter your skill level. If adventurous enough you could modify the pattern to make it a little wider towards the center. I absolutely love it, as well as the crochet version.

As a beginner, I carefully reviewed the pattern and found that it was doable for me. The yarn is so soft and I love the scheme of colours. The video is extremely helpful. My first time with cuffs. Thank you for making it so easy for beginners.

I'm not a big shrug knitter, but I love this pattern because it is so colorful, fun to knit and useful for those cold evenings when I need something on my arms and shoulders that stays in place.
Gofleidio
This pattern came at the perfect time. I have a co-worker who is usually cold. For her, I am using a washable wool blend that I have had in stash for many years. Perfect pattern to use up a yarn. Thank you
