Love this design. I’ve added it to my Ravelry favorites for future reference. Now if I can just figure out how to add some hours into the day…

Oh, my! I love this! I agree with Saralyn, we need more hours in the day to knit all of these wonderful designs.

Very nice! Your design is classic and plays up the beauty of the yarn.

Hmm… Your gorgeous design is making me want to sweat off my strict yarn diet. And in “oh-so-squishy” Dream in Color too!

Oh, good for you! It was quite a pain ordering a hard copy of this pattern–not to mention expensive.

By the way, I used Malabrigo Worsted for mine, and it worked perfectly.

[...] In other news, I have ordered three other patterns today, and some nice pretty yarn from knitpicks! I am making this sweater for my sister- she asked for it, and she is moving to Colorado in the fall, so I figure she will need it;-) The yarn is one of the clearance colors- stream, which I think will look very nice on her. I also downloaded a simple pattern for two at a time toe-up socks from knitpicks. I am going to try my hand at socks finally. I made one pair about two years ago and they turned out wretched, but then I didn’t use any kind of pattern, and well, lets just say I am STILL not that good yet! [...]
