I've just posted a couple of pictures of my St. Brigid in progress. I'm making it in Navy, in a yarn (Karabella Majestic) with a 20% mohair content, so the...
... Looks gorgeous - lovely colour! ... Mine is tighter than the rest of the sweater. I'm hoping to do some Strenuous Blocking to sort out the problem! Photos...
Hi Annie, Your St Brigid is coming along very nicely! And the colour is beautiful. I’m also a member of FLAK, where this very issue has been the subject of ...
Thanks, Heidi. I'll check out that list. I do belong to AranKnitting, but not the subgroup for the FLAK. I think I pretty much cured my problem with short...
Hi fellow knitters! Firstly, what a beautiful pattern. I have not been able to stop thinking about this sweater since the weather got cold where I live. I...
Hi, Loretta; I'm actually using Cascade 220 in Turquoise on size 5 needles for my St. Brigid as I like the way the fabric is coming out and I don't want a tent...
Has anyone found the recommended arm length (44 cm) too short? I do understand that it's a dropped shoulder, but the total wingspan from cuff to cuff seems...
i am in the exact same spot as you are! BOdy done and almost to the 44 cms of first sleeve! Of course, I am just getting back into it after about 2 years so...
I'm a bit confused by your comment on the saddle? That just runs right along the shoulder. I'm asking that if we add together the two sleeve lengths, 44 cm...
This did not come from me! Or rather, I have not written this, actually I have no idea who these people are. Therefore I’m assuming its virus related. My...
... That's very helpful - thanks! I am 4 repeats into the sleeve and my row gauge seems to be off, although it was OK for the body! - so was wondering what I...
Hello everybody, I finished my St-Brigid yesterday. It's made with Berroco yarn 50 % wool/alpaca and it is very warm. You can see a picture of it in my photos....
Agnès, it looks beautiful! Congratulations on finishing such a big project! How did the 50% Alpaca hold up with the cables? It looks just lovely. The color...
Dear Jody, Thank you for the congratulations. The sweater holds up very well with alpaca and cables and it is very warm for the winter. Have a good afternoon ...
Hi Agnès, Your St Brigid is very beautiful, and the colour looks lovely. With 50% wool/alpaca it will be very warm as well. Let’s hope for a cold winter so...
Stupid question... when you come upon the no stitch symbol your supposed to skip that stitch. Stupid question coming...do i just slip it over to the needle,...
No stitch means that stitch has not yet been created. You simply go to the next real chart symbol and do that with the next stitch. DO NOT slip any stitches....
OOOOOOOOhhhhhhh I see, jeese louise, so simple and I was racking my brain. Thanks so much! Amanda ... go to the next real chart symbol and do that with the...
Hi All, I have started knitting my st brigid again. After 18 months on the needles, I picked her up on boxing day. Reading your posts also gave me the...
Thanks Katy. I was amazed at how much time had passed, since I had done any knitting. I promised myself that I would do the KAL, but with the drs visits etc...
I have finished the back of my jumper. I am pretty pleased with myself. I have taken photo's but it will be awhile before I can post them,as I don't have a...
Okay, my insane commitment to knit TWO St. Brigid's for two of my sisters (thank heavens the other two never got in on this!) is over, finito, done, finished....
Hi, I've also joined in the desperate hope that someone will be prepared to share some info on this pattern with me. I can probably work out the pattern from...
Hi Annie, They are truly beautiful! However I must say that the blue one really caught my attention. The stitch definition is perfect, and yet it looks so...
Hi Ania, The UK is a member of the Commonwealth (I probably spelled that wrong), would it be possible for you to go to your local library and ask them if it is...
