For "curvy" gals, what patterns/books work best?
I used to be an extremely busty size 10, but being married and a mommy seems to have affected my metabolism! Now I'm anywhere from a 16-20, and I'm having the hardest time finding patterns! I looked at "Big Girl Knits," and not a one of those patterns was flattering on the girls wearing them! OK, not exclusively true--there were two sweaters I liked, but I'd have to be willing to bare the girls!! I'm loving "Knitting Nature" because the sweaters go up to a 48-52" bust, which is perfect. Doesn't look like Norah Gaughan has any other books, though. What are the rest of you using?
