I've been afearred (I'm in the South, so forgive the vernacular) to do a grown up sweater. I checked out what some other knitters did for the back and maybe the detailing was to go straight across. Granted, I haven't read the pattern or knitted one myself but here's a pick of someone else's variation: http://bp0.blogger.com/_CrB7eDRpaE0/SCrx9HyY1_I/AAAAAAAAAG4/T8Eg60L-o-0/s320/button+jar+029.jpg Golly, that's a long address. It is in the May 14th posting for http://zimmermaniacs.blogspot.com/ Cheers. Happy 30th and many more tea, cakes and cozies to you!

I've been wondering what a Seamless Hybrid would look like, and now I see yours I want to add it to my List instantly! Only thing is, I once explained to my dearly beloved about the myth of the Curse, and now whenever I offer to knit him a jumper he always says, 'Let's not risk it, eh? You can knit me a jumper one day. In the meantime, where's my hat?' Hum. Maybe I could knit one for my dad... Anyway, great job! It looks wonderful in that yarn, and the fit looks excellent. Looking forward to seeing your cardigan... It’s lovely! I’ve been wondering what a Seamless Hybrid would look like, and now I see yours I want to add it to my List instantly!
