Your sweater is MUCH nicer looking. For some reason, the cover sweater makes the model look a bit large while yours does not. I think your colors are better, too. Lighter looking. Congratulations!! It's just beautiful and really looks wonderful on you. Don't hesitate to wear it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11056012.post-1137135020762529612006-01-13T01:50:00.000-05:002006-01-13T01:50:00.000-05:00That does NOT look like a chunky knit at all.

Nice work!<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you mentioned about the cotton "growing". I've got a bunch of cotton I salvaged from a goodwill sweater I frogged and dyed, and haven't come up with a project for it yet. I'll certainly keep the growth factor in mind though!Jacquihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12713947448750349060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11056012.post-1137073346028162542006-01-12T08:42:00.000-05:002006-01-12T08:42:00.000-05:00Absolutely gorgeous.
