Oh, wow!

Do you ever see something and think, "Wow, I have got to find somebody to knit this for!"? (of course, you do) That's what I think about this:


I am seriously, seriously in love with this sweater. I am also, quite heavy up top and wearing this sweater would probably make me fall chest first into the nearest snowbank. But I SO need to create this! Ack! My sister, however, is a fabulous size 4 or something, so maybe, just maybe. . . .

Ooh, I'm loving that one, too! And how I wish I had the problem of being top heavy enough to fall into the nearest snowbank. ;-) My top is so scarce that I'd probably float up to the nearest ski lift instead. Can't wait to see you knit this! Take care, Amanda! :-)

I love that sweater too. I have seen numerous negative comments in Blogland about the Winter VK, but I thought it was better than average. Cablicious is the word that came to my mind! LOL! Ok, maybe I could do without all the bobbles.

I thought about making that sweater without the zipper. Do not even say the word knitalong.

So maybe you need to knit this, Chris! I mean, I know you probably can never wear something like this in Hawaii, but you could visit the frozen food section of your grocery in style!

And I remember the sweater you're talking about, Laura. The cardi with the bobbles--it reminded me of the Hermione hat/mittens. Maybe Alison will make it to go with her set. :)

I, too, think this VK was better than average.

Oh, it's just super-scrumptious! Absolutely love it!

Wow. I love it, too. I usually don't find much I really like in VK, but this is GORGEOUS. I've been looking for a challenging sweater to do in 2006.

So very lovely, but, alas, not for the faboobulous among us!
