I think this project is definitly a 'process knit'. Do you feel relief when they're received by the wearer or regret?Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12124722668160658606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-81008999778000271162008-02-20T13:51:00.000+00:002008-02-20T13:51:00.000+00:00What a great gansey.

Don't be afraid to shorten them a bit.

I have heard that the front and back of a sweater take 2/3 of the yarn and the sleeves together take 1/3. Would be interested to know if this is true.<BR/>Ron in MexicoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
