Love the pattern! I will be finding a substitute for the LionBrand Homespun. I was actually about to blog about that very yarn when I saw this email. I just...
Heather, I completely agree about the Homespun yarn. Actually, I'm glad to hear someone else say this, I was thinking it was just me having tons of trouble...
Oh, I thought it was just me who had trouble with Homespun. I once started a hat with it and finally gave up. I tend to knit kind of tight, so maybe it's just...
I don't like knitting that Homespun yarn either! The fact that I tend to knit tight certainly doesn't help, but in the other hand, I have already made few...

If you are making this project for yourself there is no reason why you can't use anything you like, adjusting size , stitch count etc. If you are making the...
Maybe I just had a bad skein? I don't know. This is what the sweater & the ends look like: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v455/prfectprincess/DCP_1787.jpg ...
