But I imagine how good this sweater must feel wearing it. It looks cosy and classy at the same time. <br /><br />Claudiapi.pa.po.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15655560062442366710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1143358254081179940.post-65310685861617368902011-09-15T20:22:08.882-04:002011-09-15T20:22:08.882-04:00i love this elegant and classic sweater. it's ...i love this elegant and classic sweater. it's really lovely. the local textile thing has been on my mind, ever since i discovered natural fibers in the early 70s. you wouldn't believe how hard it was to find 100% linen, cotton, wool in my area. even in design school-Velma Bolyardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12446502295849533888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1143358254081179940.post-40060951459758739832011-09-15T19:35:08.381-04:002011-09-15T19:35:08.381-04:00Very elegant and universal... if you are only goin...Very elegant and universal... if you are only going to knit one thing in two decades, it is the perfect choice. Luanne is right, you could probably steam block to get a bit looser fit. You can pin it down to the measurements you want on a cardboard fabric cutting board, cover with a nice thick towel and very gently steam iron, just above the surface. It will dry and stay a bit larger.Birdsonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06341638516293843227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1143358254081179940.post-50801708094220117722011-09-15T05:01:15.423-04:002011-09-15T05:01:15.423-04:00this is my kind of sweater *sigh* love the clour a...this is my kind of sweater *sigh* love the clour and the style :)Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11236906641354002595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1143358254081179940.post-51477195721399896702011-09-15T02:34:31.434-04:002011-09-15T02:34:31.434-04:00Gorgeous!

It's beautiful!luannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14988903685484563941noreply@blogger.com
