Those color choices really "pop" on the dark background! Nice job on your fit and style!

That came out really good. The fit, the colors, the way you designed it.

Oh my. You did a fantastic job. You are quite the experienced knitter. I love the drape and the amount of ease you put in your sweater. I'm concerned of not enough ease. I'm going to do the measurements of my body circumferences, arms and torso and make sure I add some ease, perhaps 2 inches? How did you add such a lovely amount of ease to the sweater? Simply Gorgeous. I hope mine turns out as well. Ease is my biggest concern on this project. From what I have found on the lessons, ease is not addressed clearly, but adding stitches on the underarm and checking the fit as you go is what I found. How did you get the ease in the sweater so right? Simply a smashing result. Gorgeous in every way. I want one like that too!

I can tink stocking stitch, but if the lace goes wrong I just can't get it right. Ended up stripping back my lace section to the stst when I went wrong three rows from my cast off. Still it's doing my diet some good keeping my mind and hands busy!

I got into a lot of trouble tinking yesterday! So far I''m stinking at tinking!!! Ha, ha. Seriously, I have a problem with it. I had to finally just frog a few rows and prayed a lot while getting all the stitches back on the needles. Aaaaargh. Knitting is a real challenge for me. But I'm determined! Your work is very pretty.

After tinking, I get it back on the needle and it's a mess. I then go back to where the working yarn is and individually slip stitches back, tinking stitch by stitch, often 2 full rows back to get to where all the stitches are laying on the needles properly. It's a pain to tink. Takes lots of time.
