AnneM said... Where did you get the stretch silk for the lining? And thanks for the review. I want to make DH a lined pull-over sweater, and will keep in mind to make certain the lining has as much stretch as the sweater knit! 1/14/04 7:31 PM

I think the stretch silk would work really well with some really stable wool/lycra blends in my stash where you don't need a huge amount of stretch - but the silk feels sooooo nice. ;>) 1/15/04 7:45 PM
