Nervous about cutting

I've just been reading the pattern more closely and the thought of
cutting into my knitting makes me shiver! I'm just not very handy
with a sewing machine either so, although I know people use cut and
sew successfully, I don't think I shall knit the cardy in the round
but backwards and forwards. Is anyone else planning knitting it this
way? Can any of you see any pit falls I might encounter?

Original Norwegian buttons

Who's interested in the original Norwegian buttons?

You can find them here: http://www.garnstudio.com/lang/en/knapper/

I can order them in if enough knitters are interested....

Have no idea yet how many buttons are the minimum amount to purchase (they have different ones) as my agent is having holidays here, but I can ask you all now of course and order in when she's returned.

Any questions, just ask me (not about the price please, as I have no idea yet, but I'm sure it won't be so awfully expensive). I will make a nice price of course for the ones that already ordered in the kit!

love from the Netherlands,
Astrid.

Graphs

Thank you, Aurita, for the much improved graphs and for your very helpful instructions about how to save/print them. I had no trouble with graphs M2 and M3, but couldn't print MI. Perhaps the first one was only a test? Annie

Hello everyone

Hi, I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Julie and I live in Lincolnshire, England. I'm very excited about this KAL as I have never done any serious colour work before, I've usually embellished my work with cables and other textures, but with the encouragement of this group, I think I am ready for the challenge. Starting in September should give me time to complete a few other projects (mainly socks) to clear the decks so that I shall be able to give the cardigan the time and concentration I think it is going to need.

Looking forward to meeting you all and to seeing how your work is progressing too.

M4 graph


Well this is the M4 graph, just one more to go. To print the images you can right click the image and either save it or copy it and paste it in word or any other program and print it or you can choose to open the image in a new window and print directly from there. I have checked the images for mistakes and I think they do not have any, if you see a mistake, let me know.

M2 graph


This is the M2 graph. I see if I can post the others soon. I have been busy at work.

Graphs

I've just joined the group and want to say hello. I, too, have ordered my yarn (in grey and green #47) for the jacket and for socks. It is 96 degrees (F) here today on the East Coast of the US but that doesn't deter my knitting one bit (cooler inside!). Aurita, I think your graphs are really great, a huge improvement, so I hope you'll be able to share them. Happy knitting.....Annie
