Congratulations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-handknit-cashmere-sweater-dress/page/2#post-1172162 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 03:44:05 +0000 Diana 1172162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Thank you so much for the nice compliments, ladies! :)</p> <p>As to how long this took, it was a little over two months, but I didn't work nonstop on it and I had other projects going on at the same time. On the other hand, I know I did have a week or two where I knit obsessively on it. In terms of hours, I have no idea. I actually kind of enjoy miles of stockinette stitch, as it's very zen. I can literally do it with my eyes closed, or with them staring at the tv. Right now I'm actually working on what sounds like the most boring knit ever, a black stockinette sweater, but it's going super fast. </p> <p>By the way, the all saints sweater Angie linked to this evening is a very similar shape. I do think this type of cocoon shape is (perhaps surprisingly) very good for pear/hourglass shapes, provided the garment drapes well and is loose through the hips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-handknit-cashmere-sweater-dress/page/2#post-1172146 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 03:31:59 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1172146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is really beautiful...

This is making me wish that, when I tried to teach myself to knit a few years ago, I actually&nbsp;kept with it rather than making it about halfway through a scarf, then getting distracted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-handknit-cashmere-sweater-dress/page/2#post-1172132 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 03:20:23 +0000 Jaime 1172132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok WOW with big gaping mouth was also my reaction.

That deep teal-ish blue is lovely on you. I agree I love the shape for you and the slightly baggy cocoon-ish look of the dress -- added bonus is it's cashmere (how luxurious!).&nbsp; Good for you that you didn't wait any longer for the pleasure of wearing this dress. </p> <p>This is actually the kind of silhouette I am aiming to master over the next several months. We'll see how far I get. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-handknit-cashmere-sweater-dress/page/2#post-1171930 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 22:36:33 +0000 patsymaloo 1171930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous shape - looks absolutely great!&nbsp; Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-handknit-cashmere-sweater-dress/page/2#post-1171926 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 22:34:28 +0000 Adelfa 1171926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it!
