I mention a few sources <a href="http://www.notmartha.org/archives/2007/09/05/im-knitting-a-sweater-it-looks-like-something/" rel="nofollow">this post</a>, I used the Knitter's Book of Finishing Techniques, <a href="http://www.streetsandyos.com/archives/2005/03/i_heart_attache.php" rel="nofollow">this page</a> at Streets and YOs, and <a href="http://knittingatknoon.com/atticord.html" rel="nofollow">this video</a> at Knitting at Noon. It took a while, but the finished look is very nice, and it gives you something to grab onto when you're pulling on the sweater or getting ready to zip it up. Jennie - I cannot wear wool, and it feels very scratchy and hot when I knit with it, so I knit with cotton instead. It isn't as pleasant as knitting with something with a lot of give, but I don't find it painful. Splatgirl - I glossed over it for the last sweater.

Is the blend enough to take away the crazy pain it causes? This is cute, but how do you stand to knit with cotton? Is the blend enough to take away the crazy pain it causes?
