Samina said... Nice top! Your review was extremely timely -- I am in the process of completing the very same top. I totally agree with your review of the pattern preparation; it's way too wasteful and lengthy. However, I have just pinned my collar to the neckline and find no discrepancy there -- I wonder what either of us did differently? I have never posted a pattern review here, but was considering it for the Take Manhattan top, when lo and behold your review appreared! Thank you so very much for posting it. I am hoping to post mine soon. 2/4/11 4:37 PM
