I am also knitting this sweater, I've stalled cos I made an error in the cable sections, which has thrown off my count. I'm now knitting Rosedale, so when I finish that, I'll go back to Bobble Blue. I hope mine looks as good as yours. I think it looks great on you, I really like your colour choice.

Looks GREAT on you - you should wear it all the time. Glad to see you're up and running - I had checked out your cable tutorial without realizing it was you yesterday. Mel – It’s FABULOUS.

I love this sweater and I LOVE those cable socks! They rock. I love cables so both patterns are right up my ally!

Girl, get thyself some Bare and kool-aid...NOW. Mel, that is a beautiful job on the sweater. I agree that its a texture thing. Also, I looked at your cabled socks and I love them. Those scare me and I love cables AND socks. I think that might be a pattern that I buy soon! You are scared of dyeing and you knit sweaters like that? Girl, get thyself some Bare and kool-aid…NOW.

It is absolutely adorable. I don't know anything about knitting technique, but it looks great to me, and you could never look "thick" even if you tried. I think this and the honeymoon cami are my favorites so far. PS Sorry I haven't been in touch in a while! I'll try to send a "real" email soon! I LOVE that sweater. It is absolutely adorable.

Also, your two color cabled sock just blew me away. What a beautiful sweater — you did an excellent job with your set in sleeves and making your row gauge adjustments!

Great work! I was admiring this in your gallery. You picked a great color, too. I think it looks wonderful on you, but if you are unhappy, how about just making the button bands a little narrower? You could also move the buttons in a little bit at the waist, maybe. It looks great with a shirt underneath, so if you made narrower bands you could open one more button. Hooks and eyes might look good, too, although the ribbed bands balance the bottom ribbing... BTW, I like bobbles, too :) Oh, it’s so beautiful! Great work! I was admiring this in your gallery.
