I read this post and the next a couple days ago (I’m slow on commenting but saved ‘em both so I could) and haven’t been able to stop thinking about them. This sweater is brilliant, you should be so proud of it! It looks so amazing, if only I thought I could pull it off myself. Fabulous job Jess!

Really beautiful job! The mods you did really make for a wonderful fit, and I love the yarn choice, must be soft and heavenly to wear!

That looks GREAT on you! Incredible. You should be very impressed with yourself. Short-rows are perfect!

Wow, what a truly amazing sweater this is! Actually, this must be the “perfect sweater” if there ever was any – it looks so comfortable and suits you so very well – and added to that the great pattern and the lovely yarn you were using – yep, perfect indeed! Congratulations!

What a lovely finished sweater! Thanks for reminding me of this pattern. You did a great job working on complimentary fit. That’s my biggest challenge with knitting… especially the bust/waist discrepancy. I skimmed that short row bust section of BGK when I was at the yarn shop this weekend and I definitely want to try that technique soon, too. Enjoy your new, beautiful sweater!

Hey, your sweater looks great! I love wearing my Licorice Whip around, I think it’s a great sweater. I love the way yours looks in the handdyed yarn.

Simply fabulous! You did a great job getting to fit you. I am smitten with that pattern. Didn’t seem to take you long to knit it up either. Many congrats!
