I used Red Heart yarn. It grew twice it's size. I still don't know how it happened. Now I don't wash my stuff anymore I just handwash them all. I'm too afraid to ruin it. I wish I knew how it happened. If someone knows email me at jcurry3@neo.rr.com I had the same problem with the growing issue on my first sweater that i did. I used Red Heart yarn.

Before you decide what to do with the neckline, can you post a picture of yourself wearing the cozy tall-collared black sweater? I clicked on the link and saw the model in red, but I really am interested in seeing how yours looks with the collar snapped up. Please? Wait!

You must be a fast knitter--you're zipping along. Like practically everyone else in the knitting world, I'm pondering the CPH, so I'll be interested to see how yours goes. I need to finish my half-done Tangled Yoke Cardigan first. Good times, good times. Ooh, yay! You must be a fast knitter--you're zipping along.

I made a cardigan out of "fitted knits", and it was fitting nicely, gauge was on. Then I washed it, and the whole sweater just, grew. Now it is much too big and I think I may have to frog it... or give it away. It's just the proportions are off. You are smart to wash your swatch. I think that will save you.
