Airy Lace Wrap-Around

This is my latest fitted knit.  I am a size 18/20, and the sizes fit me!

That looks great, Terri! It's nice when everyone can find the size they want to knit!

[Susan]

Great color and fit! I love the fuzziness. I really need to add this to my queue list.

Looks beautiful on you. Very feminine!

Your sweater looks great! Could you answer one question, because I'm in the midst of knitting this, and Stephanie's address for pattern errors isn't working. On the cable charts, it says to purl (on the RS) the middle two stitches of the cable, all the way up. In the picture it looks like all 6 stitches of cable are knit stitches (on RS), which is normal. I've done the cables with the 2 purls in middle, and it just seems to pull in the cable a bit more than 2 knit stitches would have. Is this a pattern error? It looks fine to me as is.

Thank you! I haven't been knitting sweaters for very long, so I appreciate that. I just checked my sweater and there are purl stitches in between the cables. It looks just fine that way. I have had so many little issues like this with the six sweaters I've made, maybe on three of them.

One more question: when you picked up the stitches on the front for the ties, how high up on the front of the sweater did you start? Did you pick up beginning at the yarn-over, on top front, or did you go down a few rows from the yarn-over and start pick-up there?

[Terri]

Just went and looked, and it was a few rows from the yarnover. I've seen the pictures of everyone else's, and it seems they did it many different ways. I suppose it's just a preference.
