I finished knitting the pieces of the ST cardigan, basted it together, and it fits!!!!! The sleeves are the perfect length. The body is the length I wanted. I am amazed, shocked and speechless — in a good way. I started sewing the seams last night and I’ll buy buttons on my way home. It should be done and ready to wear by this weekend (xxxxx — crossed fingers). I will post a picture of the finished garment. Chalk up another one for moi!

Gotta love it! Good for you. (How about you celebrate and type up that little cell phone purse pattern… )
Seriously, can’t wait to see your sweater finished. I think I’m running short on yarn for mine. I finished the back, started the sleeves (both), and am seemingly going to be short. So I stopped working on the sleeves, and started the fronts. I figure I’ll do what you were going to do with the sleeves (3/4 length?) if I truly am short.
I bought the yarn through Patternworks, and thought I had sufficiently padded my order. Ah well… They’re checking to see if they’ve got anymore in my dye lot in stock. If not — I promise not to cry to much!
Happy Friday, Rainey Sisters!

Wendy, I sent Sally the pattern by email. Make sure she gets you a copy. Good luck on the yarn shortage problem. I always used to run out of yarn. Now I buy so much extra — I hate running short or even having to think about it. Sometimes I buy up to a third more than it calls for.
