"Hi, Katherine!
Here's a photo of my finished sweater!
It fits just right, and I'm very happy
with the results. I look forward to knitting
more of your patterns.
I've worn my lush
and lacy cardigan a bunch of times
already, and I just love the pattern.
I might make it again (in a non-furry
yarn), but first, the cables
and lace kimono!" -- Jennifer

"Dear Katherine,
Attached are some photos of myself wearing
the sweater knitted from your
pattern, which I loved doing! It was
great fun, in part because your instructions
were extremely detailed & clear all
the way. I knitted it in Merinos Otto 'Shadow'
an extrafine merino.
Oddly, I needed only about 800 yards, although
I got the gauge you suggested. Also - I
ended up modifying the neckline in a couple
of ways; it felt too loose & floppy
knitted in the same needle size as the body
of the sweater, & the decreases at the
front looked too angled.......so I did it
over in 2 needle sizes down, twice as many
rows, with decreases on alternate rows rather
than on every row. It came out fitting perfectly.
I would note that I have felt like a
walking advertisement for your website.
I have had at least half a dozen women
ask me how to get this pattern; I also
had one offer to buy my sweater on the
spot (the answer was no, but thanks.....).
I look forward to knitting more of your
designs."

"Katherine,
Just finished your fabulous
lace inset cardigan, and LOVE it!
I knit it up in Knit Picks 'Panache' (40%
Baby Alpaca, 20% Cashmere, 20% Silk, 20%
Merino) in Cranberry, and it's a DREAM.
I think I'll wear it every day for the
next little bit... :)
I absololutely love the lace pattern,
and the sweater was very quick to knit
up! Thanks so much for the wonderful pattern."

"Dear
Katherine,
As you requested in your last e-mail, I
am attaching a picture of myself wearing
the "Flutter-Sleeve Top" you designed.
I used approximately six skeins of Dale
of Norway Svale #4612 for a size small.
Your directions were easy and a pleasure
to follow.
Thanks for your wonderful "Fabulous
& Flirty Crochet" book. I plan
to make many more of your designs.

"I
received Fabulous
and Flirty Crochet for my birthday,
and I love it! Here is a photo of my completed
version of the Shawl-Collared Wrap Cardigan.
I used Lion Brand Pound of Love in color
no. denim 110. It took me a little over
one (16 oz) skein. Its an acrylic
yarn instead of the mohair blend recommended,
but Im really happy with the way it
turned out. Also, I left out the pocket
(just didnt want one).
This was my first sizeable crochet project,
and the very first project Ive ever
managed to seam nicely. Thanks very much
for the instructions on sewing pieces
together at the beginning of the book!
It really makes the difference between
Uh, gee, did you make that yourself?
and Wow, you made that yourself?
Hahaha.
Love the book, love the website, and
love the email updates."

"Here are two blankets done in Bernat's
Softee Chunky, Old Antique Rose and Natural
colors for a friend's twins-to-be! They
turned out a bit larger than your pattern
calls for, but that's fine by me! The yarn
is acrylic, which means it's machine washable
and dryable... a plus with twins!!
Thanks for the great pattern(s)!!"
