It will be my first sweater. I will definitely be going over your posts for some tips and tricks! Thanks for sharing them.

I was one of those people who frantically went out and bought all the skeins I could when they went on clearance at the end of their first run. Great yarn.

My instinct is 'yes'. Although, if you found 'no', it wouldn't be so much work to add a line of reinforcing stitches just from zipper opening to shoulder seam on each side.

I saw a big mess of Cotton Ease at the store today and thought that it was high time I made this sweater. (You would think I could spell gauge, but not so much.) Thanks!

The yarn calls for #7 needles, I got pattern gauge in stockinette stitch using #5. I'm going to use #4 needles for this one for a few reasons: it's always good to go down a needle size in ribbing, my size 5 needles stick at the rotating joint, and I'll be able to knit a little more loosely without worrying about losing gauge.

We just watched the end of Gray's anatomy season 2 on DVD last night. She knits a sweater because she's giving up men. Haha, just kidding. I love your tutorials but I read them in bloglines and the images don't post to bloglines so I miss my favorite part. Can you adjust that in your RSS feed? are you giving up men?
