Cindy, I'm right on gauge with the Spring Forward, but I don't like the way it looks! It's too loose for me on a size 8 needle. I used a size 5 on Flak. I...
I have finished my saddles and am 27 rows into the back. I am using size 7 needles with the cotton fleece and seem to be on gauge. I had started with my...

I was making great progress on mine this summer. I have the sleeves done and I started doing the sides and back in one long row. That's when progress seemed...
