Comments: Simply Marilyn Takes Capital Punishment Exam For Me

Lovely color, that blue. The last two sweaters you have mentioned are on my list to make as well. I've have promised myself though, that I will finish Charity (from Rowan's Ribbon Twist collection) before I start another sweater. Also, I can't decide on a color for Simply Marilyn. Also, I think by husband, darling though he may be, would absolutely kill me if I bought more yarn right now.

By the way, where to the project percentage complete bars on the left side of your page come from? I have seen them on a number of blogs but Google is failing me...

Oh that color is beautiful! It looks like you're moving along swimmingly--I knit Marilyn a few months ago, and the one thing I wish I had done differently, was to knit the collar in the round rather than seaming it. I think I need to knit myself a cotton one...

(How funny, I couldn't post my blog link because it wouldn't pass your comment sensors!)

This one's on my list too! Guess we have similar taste in knitting :-)

Good luck with your final exam!

PS - I will have to fix that "Listening" bit for you by sending you a new mix. I'm nearly done with the "thrifty" tunes, btw... and I know you're probably dying to hear Disco Rick's "Flea Market" ditty again. :)

Quick question for curiousity's sake: Will you also size down Teva's Lace Leaf Pullover? If I remember correctly the finished bust measurements on the smallest size will be 38"...being small myself, I think that a really cute sweater like that ought to not be so baggy that I couldn't wear it out in public (come fall).

I'm going to have law school finals nightmares now but thought I'd chime in about my Simply Marilyn. I have a 32.5 inch bust and am really short to boot so I had to size it down. I ended up just using the pattern's increments to downsize it too. I think I cast on 8 fewer as well. Mine came out to be 35 inches when completed, if I remember correctly. I did knit the collar on circs. It was a good choice! Here's the link from my blog:

I love this sweater! I want to make another one next winter.

I wish I had learned to knit when I was in law school. Or maybe not, knowing me, I would have taken out extra loans to buy yarn. :)
