I had a beautiful one close to that colour from yarn i bought in Ireland and leant it to my daughter..who lost it :(.<BR/>The top down is great because you can decide as you go along if you want to add pattern - fairisle or cables or whatnot. I made mine fairly plain but used a little cable pattern on the pocket fronts and also did a cable patterned for the cuffs. <BR/>Off to post a link on todays blog entry :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38717514.post-88360736237697188112007-09-13T11:21:00.000-04:002007-09-13T11:21:00.000-04:00I'm in!
