Hi folks, I'm wondering if anyone has made St Brigid in cotton? It's just not cold enough for wool where I live but I am in love with this sweater. Thanks, ...
Hi, I was thinking, too, that cotton might make a very heavy sweater -- it could droop to your knees in an afternoon if you're not careful. I'm knitting...
Hello. I forwarded your email to my mom, my very own AS expert and her response was below...I know Alice has used cotton or cotton blends in her designs. I...
Hi everyone - have been back through the posts and see some familiar noms from blogs of the knitting world which is how I got here in the first place. I and a...
Val (presuming you are in Australia) - you might be interested in trying the Bendigo Woollen Mills' Harmony which is a cotton blend also sold in more colours...
Lisa, I am working on my St. Brigid, the second Starmore design I have knit. The first was Irish Moss. Because I don't want to work an entire garment at such ...
Hi Doreen, thanks for that info - I didn't ask the question, but I have a large cone of Debbie Bliss double knit, and another of Aran, and was wondering which...
Woo hoo Dorene - I'll swatch with happiness then!!! Only hope I've got enough - I have around 1900 metres or 2000 yards of the Jo Sharp Lisa ... From: Dorene...
Hi Everyone, I have just started my St Brigid. I found a soft green 8ply wool in our local Kmart store, as I love green thought this would be perfect. I...
Wow, Val. That's the chart stuff that Vicki does. And her St. Brigid is goregous. I am getting that little hole too. I thought when I blocked I could...
Ha! After not touching St B for a good 6 months now I almost feel not worthy to give my opinion! But that's never stopped me before... I certainly can't say...
Thanks Jodi and Katy for your help. It worked a treat. Now when we decrease the four stitches at the end of the pattern is there a special way of doing this. I...
All, I know many have knit the St. Brigid without the fringe at the bottom. Did you just let the garment hang, or do you have another technique? Please post a...
You know for a minute...I thought it could have been legit...I mean it's been a little less than a year since since I hooked up with my little lady. She is...
I thought the same thing when this email came through! As for me, I am (once again) in a non-monogamous relationship with St B yarn. I evaluated several...
I am pretty happy with the Soft Shetland Jody. I considered BWA too. However, it seemed a lot lighter to me than the Jameison. Commit publicly--you are...
OK, here's where I'm at. I swatched both and I liked them both. I started out liking the Jamieson more. Then I swatched and washed them both and they were...
Hahaha. I thought the same thing... Ladies! Having worn my St. Brigid sweater (used Cascade 220) three times in the last two weeks, I can only say that I...
Only because I love you... Some of the rest of you have knit wonderful Arans before, even other Starmores, but StB was my first (and so far, only) and now I...
I certainly thought that email was legit at first, also. I love my little lady, even if I only have 1/2 of the back done so far. I started it in July, but had...
Oh, well, it was only spam. But for a minute there was a flurry of activity on the St. Brigid KAL. That was exciting. I joined this fall, but I realize that...
I haven't started yet, but have the yarn and hope to start in the new year (a resolution!) Liz in the UK ... From: "sentientbeing23" Sent: Monday, December 12,...

Hi everyone! At last some movement on the st-b-kal. I have some of the back knitted. Each time I pick my needles up, something or someone comes along and...
I wasn't sure I was really in the group, for a long time I didn't get any messages. My name is Angie, I just joined. I think I'm going to do my St. Brigid in...
Val, I think I have the same knitting disease! "Some of the back" should be the name! Val <val853@...> wrote: Hi everyone! At last some movement on the...
Angie, Welcome! I haven't used the Cascade 200, but I LOVE my Wool of the Andes. I was unsure of what color to pick, also, but when I called to order the yarn...
Katy, As the moderator, you may delete the spam messages like the one that spawned this thread and #136. Just an FYI. Still haven't started my StB. I have...
