Oh you are so lucky to live near Woolcott! Sean is a gem and such fun. I had the pleasure of meeting him twice here in Chicago–last year at Stitches and then again at the huge Dulaan bash.

Your Bianca is gorgeous and I too believe that sock yarn needs outings occasionally.

Sean, truly, no thanks required. The kind words are richly deserved! You are doing a great job with the shop.

And although I do joke around a lot here on KnitSisters, I really would work for yarn, so please do keep me in mind when those leaves start to turn!

How sweet are you??!! Thanks for all the kind words! And let me know if you’re really interested in part time employment. We’ll most definitely have something available in the fall!

Georgi and Kate, so glad you like Sarah’s sweater!

Her plan is to write up the pattern and make it available free here on our blog. She’s planning an extensive range of sizes, but feel free to e-mail her (by clicking on her name at the upper right hand side of our page) and let her know what size you would be interested in…

Your sweater is gorgeous! I would love a copy of it and would be more than willing to pay for it, too!

I love Sarah’s sweater! Where can I get the instructions and how large does the size go?? Will the instructions be posted anywhere? It is beautiful. Great job!

Here’s the info, Lorinda: Trekking XXL, colourway 108, Muted Rainbow. Killer sock yarn. Killer! Get yourself some. I highly recommend it.

As far as Bianca goes, well…that was a major love affair I had with that sweater. I worked on it from February to April (originally my Knitting Olympics project…can you believe the crazy?) and wore it until it got so hot that I was about to faint.

Great sweater, great middle name!

Love your Trekking; what colorway is it? And your Bianca is to die for. I like it with 3/4 sleeves–looks very delicate and feminine. My daughter’s middle name is Bianca. I’m totally with you about standing outside the yarn store–will sell children for yarn, will sing showtunes for yarn, will bake cookies–you get the picture.

I am very interested in the mauve cardigan. Please can you tell me where I might be able to find the instructions, and does it go up to size 43″ C cup . Ity does look as if it would b e a bit difficult to adapt, make larger on the bust etc. I am in the UK, so might have a problem getting a copy of the pattern, but worth a try ?

Shelda, are they ever! You know, I had that ball of yarn on my mind for a week, mainly because of the colors. I was officially in a yarn non-buying zone, but you can’t help picking up strays here and there…
