Oh, good! I was hoping to hear a review of this pattern.

Now that there are so many more coming out that still fit closely but are much simpler (like this one and the one Tobus used), I am kicking myself for having chosen the fiddly pattern I did... but, at the beginning of all this, the most common choices for patterns were either the Olson mask, or the rectangular pleated one, and it wasn't until later (too late) that I started seeing others.
