I haven't knit much, if anything at all on St. Brigid. I guess the official kick off was to be Sept. 1 when Sue and I had "planned" it. I am posting progress...

You are right Chris, that is pretty poor grammar and paragraph spacing. We had a 6 year old boy sleepover last night. They are worse than girls! Talk about...
I will probably get Cascade 220 if I can't find an eggplant color in some merino wool. Would love to use Debbie Bliss Merino Aran, but not unless someone is...

Hey Ladies, I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing the row gauge problem that I am. My row gauge is much tighter than AS's. Originally I thought I'd do...
My mom, a recovered AS addict, has always had issue with row gauge and her patterns. I am tall but she has often added an extra pattern repeat for sweaters...
Could someone tell me the exact yardage required for St. Brigid??? I was looking at yarn last week-end, and something didn't "seem" right? I worked out that...
I am happy to say that I've completed two repeats on the "new" sleeve and all the cables are crossed correctly! I'm going to try to post a picture... You can...
I hope all of you with gauge problems will remember to block before deciding to add or remove pattern repeats. I'm using VY Heb 3-ply and I'm finding that as...
Having had to rip 12 rows of my sleeve today to fix a mistake, I had my sleeve off the needles. I'm wondering about width, and am specifically concerned with...
Hi Vicki. She didn't knit it. We just asked for it. Did you check the schematic? Hmmm...nothing about width. I had to increase the number of stitches on...
Per Katy's suggestion, I wrote to Wendy in regard to the sleeves and this is her reply: Hi Vicki I haven't worn St. Brigid for ages (several years at least)...
Does anyone know approximately how many yards this sweater takes? I'm guessing 2000? Just trying to figure out how many skeins of Cascade 220 to buy. I...
Hi Karen, I worked out yardage as 2040. I actually bought close to 3000 yds because I've read that Starmore's yardage was always short and most people bought...
I have dithered and dathered(?) about what yarn to use. I wanted a Merino, but wasn't finding my price choice. While at one of my local shops the other night I...
I followed the link that you have on your blog to the color card for this yarn -- mmmmm, ALL the colors are lovely, but I'm especially partial to the green(s),...
I love greens too. So much so that I chose Cascade 220 in "Lake Chelean Heather" which is a greenish-blue. (a lot closer to the Loch Ness Teal shade of Skye...
Hi. Can't wait to see how your KAL goes. I'm undecided as to which AS design I want to make for myself...Na Craga or St. Brigid. It's my first cable project so...
So who has decided already that they will (or will not) add the fringe at the bottom of St. Brigid? I am pretty sure that I will. Although I'm so far away...
I won't, even though I am further away than anyone, still waiting for yarn! Chris ... From: Karen Heinig To: st_brigid_kal@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday,...
I'm considering it, however I keep thinking that the fringe yarn is sorta my "just in case" yarn. I did buy extra but if I get low I can always use the fringe...
Like Jody, I am considering it but, like Chris, I worry about drawing attention to my hips. :) Jody, what yarn are you using now? Katy jody pirrello...
I have Araucania Nature Wool that I'm considering using. To be honest I'm not quite convinced yet. I'm going to hold off on this sweater for another month or...
Annie, from the Knitty Gritty, just knit Rogue in the Araucania Natural Wool. I could be wrong but I thought I read that she wasn't as thrilled with the yarn...
Undecided, but leaning towards not. I think I'd wear the sweater more without the fringe, and I don't need the extra attention in that area, either, though I...
