Sue, I love it! The colors are just so beautiful! Sure wish I could knit (actuallly I know how, but since an accident a while back I shattered my thumb and had to give it up :( How long did it take to make it?

It's beautiful! You've done a really nice job knitting this. The design looks Scandanavian - is it?

Not really - I made it up as I went along!

Maybe you could submit your design to a contest? It's a great design.

Lovely cardigan Sue, the colours are great. I love knitting these kind of patterns as you can clearly see progress. I've been knitting one-coloured scarves - quite boring - after a certain length I measure them every 4 inches or so.

Gorgeous! I just barely knit but it takes so long! I have patience, but not enough for this, even though it would be more than worth it. I envy you!

My best friend for almost 50 yrs tried for a longtime to teack me how to knit. I think she decided I was a lost cause way back in our late teens and early 20's and we both turned 65 in Dec! We were laughing about it just a couple of weeks ago! I can do alot of crafts that she does not do but this ain't one of them! This is beautiful!

Wow - it has been such a long time since I knitted anything, that I doubt that I could even remember how to cast on. And I never was good enough to make up a pattern. Great job.

Love this. One of my dearest friends knits and she taught me how to do a basic stitch so now everything I make is a rectangle. Oh, and I can do squares, too but I don't like to because I have to count! This is a beautiful job and I do so envy real knitters, I just haven't wanted to invest the time to learn.
