I read the skills needed and I am able to do them all but I am not sure what knitting in short rows means. I know it may sound silly....does it literally mean to just knit a short row?<BR/>Also, I like how yours has a tighter knit. I think I want to use the 9's as well, but was wondering if you still made it in your regular size, or if you went up a size?<BR/>If you get a chance to get back to me, that would be great! <BR/>Thanks!<BR/>smithbrothersbowdoinham@yahoo.comPhiligryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12830448931204543522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515337.post-28984222392458068012007-12-19T23:48:00.000-08:002007-12-19T23:48:00.000-08:00Love it!Love it!Sigrunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08550175979773645484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515337.post-20064677108891427692007-12-09T19:36:00.000-08:002007-12-09T19:36:00.000-08:00Hi Steph!

I will contact my sister and ask her bust size. Unfortunately, I missed the Michaels sale...the yarn is now back to $4.99 a skein. Still very reasonable. But I'm on a quest for the best yarn for my buck. Thanks again. If my Flicca comes out half as nice as yours I'll be thrilled.Autumnafternoon...https://www.blogger.com/profile/03087243189835646749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515337.post-38782876247392782182007-12-09T18:37:00.000-08:002007-12-09T18:37:00.000-08:00HI Autumnafternoon,you've left no way for me to co...HI Autumnafternoon,<BR/>you've left no way for me to contact you!

I really want to make this for my sister. I am ordering the pattern. But I have a quick question. Can you tell me what the sizes are? Are they XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL? My sister wears an 18 and I want to make sure and buy enough yarn now(Patons Chunky on sale at Michaels 2 for $7). Any info. you can provide would be appreciated.

Well I think it's really beautiful, and the roughness goes away once it's washed. I would say thought that it does tend to have that funny "silk smell" and looks like it will pill a bit. Even still, I love my sweater and would knit with summer tweed again.<BR/><BR/>F.Y.I. I totally had your stunning photos of Flicca in mind when trying to art direct my husband taking pictures of my Swank. But I guess I'm too much of a goof to look as elegant as you did (and the ocean background adds an atmosphere that my back yard cannot match)nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18278895757317443494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515337.post-5444265120548284112007-07-09T07:09:00.000-07:002007-07-09T07:09:00.000-07:00Wow, how have I not commented on this yet??
