Hi jennifer,
I ran across your blog a few weeks ago and wanted to say hi. I'm a fellow dallas designer and knitter. I love your patterns and creativity and look forward to seeing your awesome purse at the state fair! do you have a favorite yarn store in the area?
I have a new blog about my knitting started, but haven't had much time to devote to it lately. I'm in the middle stages of wedding planning, but got some yarn in the mail this week that I'm going to use for some wedding projects. Here is my blog

Take care!

It came out beautifully! I love it!

I finished making this and it looks great! The instructions were some of the best I've ever used - very clear. I used the short rows for the bust area and it worked out great. The hardest part was grafting the shoulders - it took about four tried, but I finally got it!
I highly recommend this pattern.
