Poor college students unite!

EXXXXACTLYYY!!!! haha.  It feels really nice.  I like the stitch consistency I'm getting on the size sevens.  It's nice and soft and pliable yet it feels like it will be fairly warm still.

I don't know why people hate on it so much. Its really nice and comes in a bunch of colors. I think caron realized how great it is because they have come out with like 3 other varieties! Chunky, tweed, and shadows. Reminds me of Pabst beer...people hate that stuff too but its cheap and good with pizza!

Here's my first pentagon

I was worried it'd be too small since I'm using thinner yarn and size 5.00mm needle, but I think it should be alright. It was super easy to make! I'm hoping to get at least one pentagon a day.

so cute yuvee! and i love the fabric you shot it on!

[dexterchickk]

okay, I am just about to cast on my 6th pentagon, but now I'm worried mine might b too big, too! They started out 6" and are now 7" when stringed together.  I don't know if I should keep going or start over?!

My progress picture! I, like many other knitters, have loved seeing the pentagons take formation!!

Hey ladies

Has anyone thought about continuing the ribbing down the body like it is done in the arms to make a complete cardi?  I am considering it.  Will be watching this thread to see the wonderful capechos

[cnp71201]

I thought of that, too... if I end up doing this, that is my plan, since I just can't see myself wearing a "capecho." They are really cute, but I doubt it would be on me! I want to see how others' turn out, and how bulky they end up. I'd definitely need to make major modifications if the look on the model is really how it turns out, because that much bulk would be scary on me, considering how much I already have up there!
