My only choice was the yarn an needles I had with me. A quick search in Ravelry for Cascade 220 patterns came up with Cassidy (Ravelry link).
Cast on and away I went ignoring the 'use smaller needles for the ribbing'.
With the move and the packing and the rest it took a while to get finished, but here it is: finished during the second (and hopefully last) blizzard in Maryland.

I love the hood and the cables. Nice and simple, not too much fuzz. It fit just right.

It still needs buttons that of course I have somewhere in a box.
Used 5.5 skeins of Cascade 220 and needles US 7
Now OTN this pretty jacket from a Drops pattern.
One day, hopefully soon my looms and yarn and something different than Cascade 220 and needles size 7 will show up!

You know, I remember a blizzard in Baltimore in March....
Ah, the wonders of Ravelry. It looks lovely.
