I may actually knit my first sweater in 2013. (Heaven knows people have gotten enough scarves in Vintage and Comfort for a lifetime!) Berroco patterns have so much more style than others I have looked at! Thanks for keeping it stylish.

Just finished Coromuel … it’s huge! I love it. Sue

Oversize sweaters never went out of style at my house. I just knit new sweaters with a positive ease and did away with all the annoying shaping. It’s good to see that silhouette is returning and there are designs for it again. I have to admit that some of my makeshift pattern alterations didn’t work so well.
