Not that I could knit a Nora pattern anyway. And, I have to say, your judgement on these things is always dead on. You're like a guru to this Knitting Knovice!<BR/><BR/>I knew how to pronounce her name, but that has nothing to do with any great intelligence on my part.

The bodice is really pretty, but the bottom half looks like she was just jumping on the Sunrise Circle bandwagon.

I love that piece of knitting you have done, beautiful colour too.<BR/>I note that you gave me a mention after our encounter on Wednesday in Brenda's. Sorry that we didn't get around to the quilting group. It was a lovely offer to meet with like minded people. Perhaps we can meet up another time. We have a little quilt group in Bendigo who meet on alternate Mondays. Please keep in touch. <BR/>Cheers for now,<BR/>Jenny (aka Jorja's Nana)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32145603.post-31920631337611909712007-11-17T13:20:00.000+11:002007-11-17T13:20:00.000+11:00Ho-kay, I went over there, and I had my browser wi...Ho-kay, I went over there, and I had my browser window small so I could keep an eye on something else.<BR/><BR/>As I was scrolling from the neck down, I was thinking, "Well, this isn't so bad," then I got below the bustline and said, "Oh."<BR/><BR/>Anyone else notice the directions are for size X-Small?Alwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03200150883889857882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32145603.post-8738024214791471482007-11-17T12:28:00.000+11:002007-11-17T12:28:00.000+11:00Mmmm.

It's as though the designer lost her train of thought between the breasts and the waistline and said "Hey, what the hell!
