Sherril Miller said... Great fabrics. These turned out wonderfully. I'm inspired to try it in a plaid too. Like other reviewers did you find any problem with the tank armhole? 11/12/06 2:16 PM

JDpenelope said... What a difference a year makes. Having the right equipment also helps. But putting together what you have learned sewing knits is the key and you've done it in spades. It's so nice that you've worked out the sizing issues with various knit fabrics. Now you can just sit down and sew. 11/13/06 9:32 AM
2BSewing said... Hi Sherril...I don't seem to have a problem with the tank armhole. If the knit is really stretchy...then the armhole becomes larger or pulls down and exposes a bit more flesh than I'm used to. That's why I'll take up/in the shoulder area by 5/8". Otherwise, it's fine with a less stretchy knit. 11/13/06 7:49 PM
2BSewing said... Carla, Linda, Ryan's Mom, & Anne...thanks for the complements. Penelope...a year does make a difference and I've had to learn not to get frustrated with a pattern. Just put it aside and try something else. I love working with knits and could sew on it all day. Of course if I had a coverstitch machine...I'm sure my hems would go a lot faster. :) 11/13/06 7:55 PM

BeckyC said... The knit lace makes up a really pretty cardigan. All of your fabric choices are wonderful for this pattern. 11/24/06 7:10 PM
Susan Dryer said... Very pretty! If I looked anywhere as good in black as you do I would wear it all the time too. 11/24/06 8:42 PM
memmy said... this is very topical review for me as I am contemplating a twinset but made up with my trust T shirt pattern and using Marcy Tiltons article from Threads of a few years ago. I am considering button loops on mine .Youve inspired me to get going on it. 11/26/06 6:40 PM
