I just wanted to say that I've been following your blog for a while on RSS (so i never end up commenting), but I really love it! I just caught up on a backlog of your posts and realized I've never commented before and should, since I end up bookmarking so many things you link!

Junkdrawer - So far no pilling, I've run it through the dryer twice now. Hello Jamie - I'm using size #4 needles, I was able to get pattern gauge with those.

Also, try drying it with just air. The heat wouldn't be an issue then. Good luck getting it back to normal!

I think the ribby cardi looks great. What size needles are you using for this sweater with the cotton ease? I've recently discovered this site so I wasn't here for the first cardigan.
