But it’s written as M3 = K1, yfwd, K1.<br /><br />hope that helps! :)Reckless Gluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11287746324557333647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20704287.post-56288402086997267002010-08-18T08:33:06.888-07:002010-08-18T08:33:06.888-07:00i can't figure out the m3 either. if you can r...i can't figure out the m3 either. if you can remember and help, that would be super!!!! <br />shani78@gmail.comshanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11629023076452045588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20704287.post-17188514524274962052009-01-19T10:51:00.000-08:002009-01-19T10:51:00.000-08:00for sure ---you can email me at cross@mec.cahopefu...for sure ---you can email me at cross@mec.ca<BR/>hopefully I'll remember how I knit that thing!

I'm wondering if you can tell me why at row three after the ribbing I'm coming up with one extra st. This is frustrating me. If possible I would love to briefly chat via email about it.<BR/><BR/>KathyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20704287.post-63605257003861634192009-01-14T08:45:00.000-08:002009-01-14T08:45:00.000-08:00Your sweater is georgeous, it's all in the photogr...Your sweater is georgeous, it's all in the photography. I am just starting Iceland, same color. I'm only on row 3 for the 20th time. I really need to talk with someone about the sequence of pattern and why I've got extra sts.

Maybe that would give it the shape you want! <BR/><BR/>And (this is my crazy fashion sense talking - please feel free to ignore) I think that really long leather gloves would be cool with it too - that way, no need to fit it under a coat! <BR/><BR/>;)joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00953231307691971082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20704287.post-32113320705005124942008-07-17T17:13:00.000-07:002008-07-17T17:13:00.000-07:00I agree with everyone - it's awesome!

I'm under no aspersions in terms of wanting to look like the model haha And I'm leery of blocking it lest I inadvertantly make it bigger, but y'all are helping me to change my mind on this thing fundamentally.

It looks like yours is the same in every respect, but maybe try blocking it differently, if you feel it's not quite the way you want it. I bet that would give you more length, and less width!<BR/><BR/>It's a great sweater, by the way. really fashionable and yet classic all at once!<BR/><BR/> - JulieTeam Knithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09312254786188352620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20704287.post-44287058370055529912008-07-14T22:01:00.000-07:002008-07-14T22:01:00.000-07:00i think you're nuts--the sweater looks great. yes...i think you're nuts--the sweater looks great. yes, it looks different than the picture in the book, but don't most of them? i hope it grows on you, in spite of your current impression.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20704287.post-30725499959999631842008-07-14T15:55:00.000-07:002008-07-14T15:55:00.000-07:00How freaking cute are you, I can't even handle it....How freaking cute are you, I can't even handle it. Okay, I can and it's awesome. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and I don't think you look like you're wearing a burlap sac like you make it sound. In fact, it's super drapey and chic on you. Not to mention you can pull that sort of look off.
