A lower motif just looks droopy to me.<BR/><BR/>Personally I wouldn't touch this one with a ten foot pole, but I'm not the shape this sweater would flatter. I think if you're willing to reknit to get it just right (probably not a big deal in bulky yarn) or to rip entirely if it turns out to be unflattering, why not give it a try?Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12609303563648969281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21210109.post-33681867221677715652008-09-22T20:34:00.000-04:002008-09-22T20:34:00.000-04:00Well, I would proceed with caution with this one. ...Well, I would proceed with caution with this one.

I think it will be fine on you. It looks like there is a bit of funkyness going on under the arms as far as bulk is concerned,b ut like Laurie said, if you're smaller it will look great. And if you want the pattern to be a little more subtle, you can wear a similar colored shirt under.Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17539872359979534103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21210109.post-14141181900680271172008-09-22T14:52:00.000-04:002008-09-22T14:52:00.000-04:00If you are small, it will be easier for you to wea...If you are small, it will be easier for you to wear this sweater than if you were large.LaurieMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17609188211326621400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21210109.post-79684740044792797422008-09-22T13:21:00.000-04:002008-09-22T13:21:00.000-04:00If your husband is anything like mine (in that he ...If your husband is anything like mine (in that he rarely makes a comment on most knitting), the fact that he made such a strong comment certainly says something.
