The color is right, and it fits so well! Kudos kiddo!

Let's be knitting buddies! What do you say?

Sounds good to me!!

I've been wanting to try to knit a cardigan for a while now, and seeing all of the lovely cardigans that you've made definitely inspired me.

Wanna be my knitting buddy for the ORMOND cardigan that I talked about in the General Knitting forum?

It's flattering in all of the 10 sizes! It's very thoughtful of the designer to make this cute cardigan accessible to all figure types! And unusual, too. Most patterns seem to end at size 46-47".

Anyway, I hope you like the design in the first place! I know you have the skills to knit it after seeing your beautiful blue cardigan! (which is harder than the Ormond)

I'll definitely have to think about it. My main concern would be the cost of yarn and for the pattern. I'm broke right now, but I should be able to afford to do it within a couple weeks.

I won't be ready either til after Labor Day. Maybe Sept 10th or so. I'm still working on the PETRONIA. Just started it this week. So I need at least 2-3 weeks myself.

Good thing you got over that hump in your knitting career.

Your sweater turned out very nice. Congratulations on your first!

Beautiful! You're a cardigan natural and that certainly is a Cardigan to Love! I bet you've been enjoying wearing it. How'd I miss this thread before?
