I don't have a problem with investigating substitute yarns, but God, would I love to see patterns that are sized for plus sizes. I'm new enough to knitting that I'm not confident in tweaking patterns to fit my size, and it makes me very sad to go through the books and drool over all the cool sweaters and such, and realize that I can't wear any of them.
Also, if you call to order, they'll help you with the assortability thing. (I highly recommend them -- they are very, very nice on the phone, and the beads and such are great.)
Hello -- does anyone have any suggestions on increasing the size of the Skully sweater, say to about a 3-4X? I'm dying to make it, but I am not a skinny little thing, and would need to figure out how to make it in a plus size...
