after I posted my Espenson comment, I scrolled through and saw that you had completed a couple of patterns that I had looked at or tried from ravelry.com. I also made a Saroyan scarf in a rich self-striping Malabrigo wool that looks great, but for whatever reason, I just didn’t end up wearing it that much. I think I like making scarves for others.

I did not attempt the Sweet November shawl because I like larger ones, and because the mesh holes were too big for my taste. I could just see myself snagging the scarf onto all kinds of things, and either wrecking it, or ending my life a la Isadora Duncan.

I liked the racerback tank (lacy one) very much and I may attempt that at some point for one of my much thinner daughters. Trouble is, I’m still an advanced beginner (haven’t knitted a sock yet and haven’t cabled, and my shaping skills really suck) and a lot of these patterns are just too advanced for me.

I think your projects have come out very well. My goal is reach your skill level so I can actually make some fitted type garments.

This came out so good and so true to the pattern. I am downloading your photo as well as the PDF instructions for the Espenson from Ravelry so I can start one for my fashionista 15 yr old and one for myself, one for my older daughter, one for my mom…..

I absolutely love how yours came out! Thanks for posting. I’ve been online for an hour googling “knitted short sleeve poncho tops” when what I really wanted has been here all along!

happy future knitting,

Ellen

I must admit I was beholding the loveliness of the Jamie and the top

I’m so glad you included that last candid photo, it was so funny when I took it!
