I really love this sweater and I wear it all the time. The fit is just perfect and I like how it's really feminine without being cheesy or sentimental. The yarn is holding up to wear really well. It's really interesting that the ribbing on the sleeves (knitted with Clover bamboo needles) does not look nearly as good as the ribbing on the hem and cowl, both knitted using Lantern Moon ebony needles. That tells me that Wendy, the owner of Yarns2Ewe in Houston where I bought the LM's, really was right when she told me that knitting with LM needles was going to have a huge impact!

Gorgeous! It looks really good on you, and I feel exactly the same way about the wearability of mine - just right! :D
Thanks, Birgitte!
That looks way better on you than the original pick that you showed us. Color is better and fit too. GREAT job Herdis!!!! now, if only I would finish my scarf and get started on some socks *eye roll*
Thanks, Ali! You're proceeding to socks now? Wow! Wanna do a 2-person knit-along? It's been ages since I knit socks and I'd love to give it a shot. What pattern were you thinking of?
haven't thought about it much. I have this Harry Potter knits book and they have very basic socks. I haven't gotten yarn yet or anything. I'll e-mail you....
