The custom ordered zipper finally arrived and I was able to finish my Mariah. It's been fun. I love this sweater. Jody, thanks, you're awesome! photos @...
I must say, the 4 photos on this group show LOVELY Maria's...that give me motivation to indeed finish mine. I'm just concerenned that since I used such a cheap...
I am finally done knitting (I started in June and planned to be done by the end of July). I have no idea how I am supposed to seam the sweater. The garter...
Hi. Congratulations on finishing! I can tell you what I did. I turned under about 1/2 inch along the front edge before I installed the zipper. Side seams I...
If you do the mattress stitch just inside the garter stitch on the edges then they won't show and you'll have a sturdy seam. For the front edge, I designed it...
Hi all, I'm knitting the 40" size of the pattern and after first knitting a 27" sleeve, I followed Lunastrixae's suggestion from below. I ripped back, and now...
When I made my sleeves, I kept constantly measuring them against my arm to get the right length rather than ripping back. I had to adjust the increase pattern...
Thank you. I look forward to finishing it up this evening. Thank you for a wonderful pattern. ... If you do the mattress stitch just inside the garter...
I don't thin it will matter that much, IMO. your stitch counts will be off, but as long as the top of the sleeve is wide enough to go around you arm, you...
Yes, I am finishing the yoke for my Mariah and I just did the increases in quick succession towards the armpit part--making for a snugger sleeve throughout...
I did a similar adjustment, and had no problems, I just made sure it was wide enough to go around my arm... because you won't be doing any more increases. My...
Found this pattern and was trying to knit. Didn't get very far when I ran into problems. Was doing the wrap and turn. Then the pattern says: Cont as est until...
Poor Mariah. She was sitting, 99.995% finished, on my dresser all summer. Check out the pictures and notes on my blog. Karma http://goodkarmago.blogspot.com...
Thanks, Renee! Your Mariah looks fabulous... I like the bright color, actually. And it looks like you did an amazing job of installing the zipper. Best, Karma...
I started in March, finished the actual knitting almost two months ago and I have been happily wearing this beauty zipperless since then. But.....today I...
Wow, Margot, It looks fabulous! That is very well behaved cotton. Nice fit. Julia http://yarnmaven.typepad.com ... From: "snowfalcon9" <firewood9@...> ...
thanks for all the kudos - what fun! I realized after my post that I actually sized the sweater for a 35" bust, not a 33". as for the shrug in the photo album...
well, this has been interesting. i love the sleeves. i love cabling without a cable needle. i love this (patons merino) yarn. but i did something wonky with...
Heather, I actually like your version. It's almost a totally different sweater -- longer like a tunic, rather than the close-fit cropped look. And it works...
Heather I think you did a beautiful job, the cabling and the yarn is lovely. but, if you're really not happy, I think it will probably fit me!!!!! Sherrye in...
So. I LOVE my mariah. It fits perfectly (I did the revised edition, the original didn't work in my case - size XL). The only problem is that this pattons...
Jaime, Congrats on making such a fabulously fitting Mariah! Did you post pictures to your blog? I took a quick peek but didn't see any. Anyway, I haven't used...
I hope that someone here can help me. I feel like I am going crazy. I am trying to start the sleeves. I don't get how if you cast on 52 stitches you can work...
... You start at point A and only repeat the section labeled 22-stitch repeat, until the last repeat. Then you go all the way to the end of the chart. Cassie ...
