Hooray! My second knitty pattern is published, and it's one of my favourite knits yet - not very fancy, but a nice shape, stripey, and very wearable!
Clickety click on the photo to see more, or of course click here to see the pattern.
I'll leave it at that, thank you so much to Carolyn (you know who!) for the yarn in the first place!

I love the cardigan! I would die without my cardigans and zip-up sweaters! This one is great! Congrats on getting it in Knitty!

Congrats! I really like the colorful stripeyness of your cardigan. It looks fun to make, I'll have to try it after I finish my current sweater:) Your Hug-shrug was the first non-hat or scarf item I made after I started knitting! Thank you!

What a great sweater, I'm trying to get my husband to knit it for me! I also love your fluffy caterpillar pattern...it's very cute and I will definitely make one for my little grandson. Thanks so much and best of luck to you.

It's a great design! I gave Lynette the same yarn and she's going to be knitting your pattern. Isn't that funny?
Posted by: monica at March 8, 2007 06:42 PM
I've been reading you for awhile, and I just saw your pattern on knitty and had to come over and comment.
I love it, and I love it even more since it goes up to 5X! not many pattersn do that.
You did a great job as usual.

you're a superstar, girl :)
Posted by: carolyn at March 8, 2007 07:41 PM
I simply love Carolyn, especially the big buttons and stripes! I will certainly put this on my list of things to knit this spring.
Posted by: Kate at March 8, 2007 07:52 PM
Congratulations, it's gorgeous!
Posted by: Nora at March 8, 2007 09:19 PM
I love that pattern! Nice job there girlie!
I'll admit I was a hair jealous Carolyn got a sweater named after her, but she seems to have provided the yarn, so I can't quibble with your choice of name. Besides, she rocks.
Nice work.

I might start on the front... while I wait for you.

When I first saw the new knitty, I squealed and thought, "I have to knit this!" before even looking at the pattern. I was just so excited to see that it was named after someone with the same name as me!
So far I'm probably about a third or more into the pattern, it's really fun and quick to knit. I can't wait to pick out some fun buttons for it!
But yes, great work! ^_^

First of all, thanks for the pattern - I LOVE it!
Do you know if there's anyone in the UK selling Elann wool? It's so expensive to ship from the States...
Posted by: Kristin at March 17, 2007 01:30 PM
what a nice looking sweater, it looks sooo comfy!! Can't wait to get started on mine.
Congrats!!
