hi ange...yep, it's from twinkle big city
knits. i love the book. have already made two
things and am planning on a third. i started
a flickr group here if you want to see more
fo's from the book: www.flickr.com/groups/twinkleknits/
Your sweater is gorgeous. I am trying to knit
the same sweater now and I'm having problems
understanding the pattern. Mind if I ask you
a question about the pattern? At which point
to do you make the first decrease row and the
second buttonhole row? I have the decrease
row at row 12 and the buttonhole row at row
13. Is this what you did to make this lovely
sweater?
thanks tammi...to tell ya the truth, i knit
it so long ago, i can't remember! check out
the flickr twinkle group...maybe there's
someone making it right now who will
know...sorry i can't be more helpful : ) good
luck! (link to twinkle group is in the
sidebar to the right of the image above.)
No worries. I think I have it worked out. I
am writing out every line of the pattern,
then I'm counting the left front and right
front stitches, once I see that I'm on
target, I knit the row. This has helped me
keep sane while using this pattern.
Your sweater is awesome. I think I'll splurge
on Twinkle Yarn next time. I'm using Lana
Grande for mine. It's nice, but not as lux
looking as yours. :D
Hi - I found your pictures while doing a
search to see if anyone made this cardigan.
I was debating, but was afraid it might be
too thick and chunky. This is BEAUTIFUL,
though, I'm definitely going to get
started... gorgeous color, too!
thanks nikooru. i've made a bunch of twinkle
designs and this is probably my fave. IMHO
chunky knits can be figure flattering if the
fit is kept fairly streamlined.
