You shouldn't be ...Thank you so much Lana! :)<br /><br />You shouldn't be scared at all to start your Manu! I kid you not, it's actually a very easy peasy pattern. I was a little nervous when I started mine, simply cause I thought it would be a little more intermediate than where I'm at in my knitting skills (it was the pleats that I thought would do me in) but I was so wrong. I'm almost done with the pleats (which are sooo easy, I laughed) and can finally see the end of the tunnel. What I will tell you though, is Manu is very time consuming. Maybe you are a fast knitter though, and you'll fly through this cardigan no problem. But for me, I was slow, slow, slow. I just find the endless amounts of stockinette to be the killer.<br /><br />Also, thank you for your lovely comment about my stash! I don't think anyone who is not a knitter/crocheter/person who has space-consuming hobby will ever understand the need for more yarn. I simply related to a friend of mine who scrapbooks that each and every piece of paper, chipboard, brad, etc, that she buys and collects "just in case" is the same thing as me buying more yarn..."just in case". :)Melissa @ Miso Crafty Knitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03296391618385176362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3403443356861380160.post-44890618164531925052010-07-17T10:15:18.762-07:002010-07-17T10:15:18.762-07:00Your Manu is looking good!

None of my friends understand my need for buying more yarn when my stash is overflowing as it is. lol. Can't wait to see the Manu when it's done.Lanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08301534064129095409noreply@blogger.com
