Gravatar It's drop-dead gorgeous and you look stunning. Kudos to you for your clever mods, too. I am going to have to exercise some serious willpower to avoid making this one!


Gravatar Wow! It's stunning. I saw the sweater in the magazine and didn't think much of it. Your version is amazing and is a good fit/style for you. Great pics, too.

P.S. Nice red socks or tights.


Gravatar It looks fantastic! I love that you made a sweater w/builky yarn look not at all bulky. The magazine version looks downright dowdy compared to yours. Well done.


Gravatar all i can say is WOW! it's so beautiful, and it's a great color on you. and at such a bargain, too!


Gravatar You look fantastic in this cardigan and I love the colour. And I totally know what you mean about the lag between finishing a sweater and posting about it. I have a cardigan that's been done since the end of Sept. and I still don't have the photos done. I even have the post written!


Gravatar Shazam! You wear it so well. And kudo's on all the mods!


Gravatar Your sweater turned out beautiful! Thank you for all the tips. I would have been pulling my hair out trying to figure out the mistakes.


Gravatar Oh. My. God. You are the cutest ever! The sweater is awesome.


Gravatar The sweater is gorgeous and looks fantastic on you! Wonderful photo shoot!


Gravatar That is absolutely gorgeous! I love malabrigo and I can't even imagine how much more gorgeous it must be in person.


Gravatar Your sweater is fantastic! Lovely work!


Gravatar The jacket is absolutely killer on you, and it looks 40x better on you than it did in the magazine. Congrats on another beautiful project. Your work is inspiring!


Gravatar Holy crap, Veronique, that sweater is amazing. It fits you like a glove and looks stunning. I am really tempted to knit this one!! Love the buttons and good job on the mods. Frustrating that VK was unhelpful. It's great!


Gravatar Wow - that is so gorgeous! Bra--vo indeed. And I can totally relate to the FO, photo shoot lag. For me it's that elusive combination of daylight and available photographer!


Gravatar Just. beautiful. And a perfect fit. Great work, and a lovely style for you.


Gravatar Wow, Veronique. The jacket is beautiful and you look beautiful in it! Thanks for the detailed pattern notes. You're such a giving knitter/blogger!

Re: Jess. It's handy to have a knitting roommate isn't it? Suddenly, your knitting tool collection is doubled. I so need to convince my husband to start knitting!


Gravatar wow, véronique! that jacket is fantastic on you! fabulous work indeed. and i love how the stitching on your jeans back pockets matches the yarn


Gravatar Very lovely! I'm afraid all of the mods would have really intimidated me - but you handled these beautifully. What a great fit and lovely details. This is one of your most amazing projects to date, in my opinion! Two thumbs up. And a nice photo shoot, too.


Gravatar It's beautiful! Congrats on successfully managing all of those mods.


Gravatar That sweater looks fantastic. It's 100 times more flattering and eye-catching than either the magazine or Anthropologie versions, and I imagine that the Malabrigo feels more fabulous, too!


Gravatar Dude. This is such a beautiful sweater, and your mods make it even better! Seriously, it doesn't even look like the same sweater. I LOVE your version. LOVE IT.


Gravatar It is so pretty and bright and cheery!!! Too bad Vogue wasn't responsive. And their logic about the yardage doesn't make sense to me either.


Gravatar Awesome! And so much nicer than the one in the magazine! The color is outstanding.


Gravatar It's lovely! Great job on all the finishing details. I'm sure you'll get a lot of wear out of this one!


Gravatar How gorgeous! Really too stunning.


Gravatar OH MY! That is stunning. I didnt' even notice it in the magazine. It's on my queue now


Gravatar Oh baby, one of your finest knitting and modeling moments yet!


Gravatar You look adorable! Love the new sweater - especially the back. Great job!


Gravatar holy crap, that is am AMAZING knit! Great job, once again, V! How did i miss that cable panel when you wore it to BG?


Gravatar The time lag was totally worth it though - what great pics, and a wonderful FO.


Gravatar gorgeous. really love it. congrats!!


Gravatar Oh it's a beauty - I love the yarn sub - gives it much more oomph than the original. Well done on figuring out the mods.


Gravatar I have to agree -- I didn't think much of the sweater in the issue of VK, but wow! That is fantastic! I love it all -- the color, the shape, the sass!


Gravatar Very nice! It looks perfect, great job!


Gravatar oooh, i love it! the ruffles are so cute. i bet you'll wear it tons.


Gravatar I was not in the least bit interested in this sweater until seeing yours just now. Thanks for all of the great notes!


Gravatar I


Gravatar that is amazing!!! so feminine and just beautiful! very different from so many sweaters that are out there


Gravatar Absolutely fabulous!! The color you chose is so perfect; I never would have thought to use Malabrigo for this pattern, but it looks great. Only two weeks? *So* tempted...


Gravatar Awesome! I noticed this sweater when I got the new vogue knitting, but I think yours makes the pattern look even more appealing. Thanks for all the details on your mods, I definitely see one of these in my future!


Gravatar I'm totally in awe of your fixing and sleuthing...I can't believe the sell it at Anthro! But yours is better, and doesn't have such a stupid name.

I also have a huge backlog on FO pix. The daylight thing, it's a problem...


Gravatar What a great fo!!! Love the color, love love love the cable & those ruffles are spectacular!:D

I always have lag time between finishing a project and photographing it, I have a finished MR Greenjeans waiting for pictures. *maybe* this weekend!


Gravatar Wow - it is simply amazing - nice job with all of the issues you stumbled upon! Very fun but practical and I love how girlie it is!


Gravatar This is totally, totally gorgeous, V. Really, it looks just fantastic.
I skipped right past it in the magazine, but seeing yours? I may have to make one of my own. Thanks SO much for all the info about your mods/corrections.


Gravatar la couleur te va à ravir, le panneau de torsades cental est magnifique et les petits ruffles...oh la la... je craque complètement!!


Gravatar oh my gosh, you TOTALLY rock that sweater!!!
love it SO much.............it looks perfect, and the photos are beautiful!
great hat, socks, jeans..............the whole outfit!!!


Gravatar ooo i like yours MUCH better than the VK sample or the Anthropologie one. The shoulder look nicer, too. I really hope to be as good of a problem solver as you, some day!


Gravatar Gorgeous! thanks for sharing your modifications and the seaming tips! I may have to knit this now.


Gravatar Ditto to everyone who said it looks much better on you than in the magazine! That is one great sweater. Thanks for all the details on your mods.


Gravatar That is a wonderfully delicious sweater!

How was the sizing on this? I'm still having problems figuring out what sizes to make.


Gravatar Stunning, Veronique! I love the photos (as always), and the details of the sweater are so lovely -- and beautifully knit. Brava!


Gravatar Just absolutely brilliant! I haven't knitted a sweater yet...too scared...I will drool over pieces like yours instead!


Gravatar Oh, Veronique, this is a lovely cardi! I agree with a previous poster that the sample in VK looks positively dowdy compared to your cardi (and your fabulous front stoop photoshoot!). I wouldn't have given the sweater a second look but now I might have to.... enjoy it!


Gravatar nice! i went right over the picture in the magazine, but your version is really eye catching. and that red - yum. gorgeous sweater - nice work.


Gravatar Again, BEEEE-YOOOO-TEEEEEE-FUUUUULL!


Gravatar oh my gawd, it is a VISION! i'm just slightly speechless. and drooling.
and your attention to detail is truly inspiring. and i can't believe anthropologie makes this sweater. which came first? pattern or cardigan? totally crazy.


Gravatar wow, wow, wow! I love it! You did a fabulous job and the mods and attention to detail was way worth it. I always liked this sweater, but wasn't sure if I would still like it in "real life". I think I'll move that up a few spots in the queue!


Gravatar Oh my, this is just gorgeous! Excellent work.


Gravatar Your photo shoot is quite fantastic of course that has a LOT to do with that amazing sweater!! It's zooming up my queue right now!


Gravatar Oh, the hotness! It looks terrific, but I expect that from you. The Malabrigo really is to die for. If only it held up better. Perfection is fragile, I guess!


Gravatar omg veronique! this is freaking sensational! now i always love your knits - but this one i bleeding adore! how flipping fantastic do you look??! how cool is that project! OMG


Gravatar Wow wow wowie WOW! That is hands down the most amazing cardi around! You look incredible in it!


Gravatar breathtakingly beautiful. :0


Gravatar Holy Crow. Need I say it? It looked like you were having a great time knitting it- any more Malabrigoplans on the horizon?


Gravatar Vraiment ravissant !


Gravatar Love it! Especially the big buttons!


Gravatar Oh my gosh that is gorgeous!!! I must look for it on Ravelry so I can make it as a fav! (Hope I have that issue of Vogue somewhere around here)

Great Job - it's a Beauty!!!


Gravatar this is so fantastic! you look beautiful in that red!


Gravatar Great jacket! It looks fabulous!!


Gravatar It is absolutely fabulous, and what great photos!!


Gravatar OMG this sweater is AMAZING! I also love your mint mojito hederas! I may follow suit with that one!


Gravatar Good greif - as I live and breathe that is about the cutest sweater I have seen in ages. It's perfect on you!


Gravatar Ha, I'm glad me and my camera could help out! Your sweater looks gorgeous, both in person and in the photos--you did an amazing job, as always.


Gravatar veronique, i am supremely bummed to have missed out on the debut of this sweater at the point the other week :-( i must make a date to see it.

and then you must talk me OUT of knitting one for myself.


Gravatar Ok I know I am late to the game and the 75th commenter on this cardigan, but I just had to say "Damn that is a nice sweater!!" I love it!


Gravatar It's just beautiful Veronique! I have that issue of Vogue- will have to look this beauty up. I think It might be too ruffly for myself, but you can really pull it off!
