Come on... $3 (plus shipping of course) could change your relationship from like... and will wear... to love. :) <BR/><BR/>I love the look of zippers, but HATE the time they take to insert correctly. I've decided to use a local (two doors down from LYS) tailor.

I get the same thing when I wear shirts or blouses which button all the way down the front. I have quite a large bust, and I'm always convinced the shirt is pulling at the buttons. This leads to me a) buying shirts which are really way too big and/or b) constantly tugging at the front.<BR/>I have pretty much given up wearing shirts as a result and I suspect you will find you don't wear your zipped cardi very often either.<BR/>It REALLY REALLY looks good, but I doubt you'll ever believe it yourself.<BR/>Don't say we commenters didn't try!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11056012.post-65562971167518291822007-02-11T11:17:00.000-05:002007-02-11T11:17:00.000-05:00Each of us is our harshest critic - you may not li...Each of us is our harshest critic - you may not like it, but I think everyone else does! :) it looks beautiful on you, C!Lollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06357726478543066086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11056012.post-74430659146161845452007-02-10T23:47:00.000-05:002007-02-10T23:47:00.000-05:00That looks great!

Maybe the zipper is too heavy for the sweater. You could try a lighter one. and do what the Grumperina suggests.

The colour really compliments your complexion, and it doesn't look bulky to me at all. But I hear ya; if you don't feel good wearing something you never feel comfortable in it.<BR/><BR/>I'm wearing a cardigan right now that my Mom knit for me and it has a lightweight nylon zip with tiny teeth. I find it doesn't bunch or pucker at all.
