Started swatching for it. Had to go to a size 0 needle and needed something pointy so tried knitpicks metal circulars after bamboo made me crazy.
At first it seemed like knitting with an invisible thread but after about ten rows I got really into it and am excited about starting the cardigan. its amazing that something so cobweb quickly feels quite substantial when knit.
I have not seen this made up (have to find a trunk show) and wonder if anyone has made it?
Although the dimensions say it should fit me, i suspect it is supposed to be very loose and on me it will be more form fitting--any thoughts on whether I should make it larger or just do the first one as written (which is my inclination.) I can always make a gift of it. I have a 44 bust and the pattern is 45 inches buttoned--although i usually keep cardigans open. Also wonder how the assymetric fold on front will look if i have it opened or maybe just button one or two buttons.
any suggestions appreciated
Sandy
