pattern absolutely does not work beginning with round 4. It appears some step is left out.

@ejdeuel, if you are having trouble with the pattern or have a question, your best bet is to contact the pattern designer directly. They should have the best chance of addressing the problem. Best of luck! --Editors of FaveCrafts

The best part will be using different yarns, and adding details. Like using sparkling and fuzzy yarns. Plus you can also do this in solid bright colors to match their jackets.
