This bolero is so easy to make because it's knit in one piece with not one lick of sewing. The final shape is a big oval with two holes in it, so simple!

I spent a lot of time while I was knitting this trying to imagine what this wacky shape was actually going to look like when I put it on. I wondered what I would do with it when it was done and unwearable - a bath mat? with two holes? Luckily, it turned out how I had first happily pictured it, and, instead of dripping bath water all over it, I'm strutting down Sullivan Street in it!
