As I said in the post, it looks much more intimidating than it actually is It's knitted in one piece and you start at the neckline and knit to the hem. It's one of those projects that I took on long car trips. It kept me busy and productive at the same time. Shams is referring to a comment I recently made to her. I said that I'm always cold and that I usually look like a bag lady. She said that she refused to have a mental picture of me as a bag lady. Believe it or not, as I sit here, I have on a long sleeve T-shirt, a sweater and a shawl wrapped around me. Everything does match though!!<br />Thanks everyone for all the lovely compliments.RhondaBusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12555069797738423675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691319772208152166.post-12509421788407253242012-03-01T20:03:03.388-06:002012-03-01T20:03:03.388-06:00I didn't know you liked to knit!

The cable finish for the hem is perfect, what a great idea to give the hem a bit more structure, and your i-cord and stick closure look terrific.kbencohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00885068563358776147noreply@blogger.com
