Looks great.
I haven’t knit Tubey, but I can say that I’m a bit wary of it for my body type. All over ribbing is not flattering if your bust is smaller than your hips. Other than that, I don’t know much about the pattern itself.

Your Cobblestone looks great! I want to knit that for my boyfriend… well… once I get a ring :o).

I’ve knit Tubey. It… umm. Well. I made an unfortunate color/stripe decision that I think plays heavily in my dislike of my version. I think that the concept/style is great though and would love to try to knit it again with better gauge and color and measuring, haha. It’s a pretty finicky pattern though, and I would guess would be hard to do from a distance (ie not being able to get the exact measurements you want or have them try it on). It was my first sweater though, so maybe it would go better for you? (you can look at pictures in my Ravelry profile, I’m KnitEurope)

Cobblestone looks terrific! Love the catalog pose he’s working there. And mini-Cobblestones for the kids, how cute! 9 days, I’m impressed.

I knit Tubey, though I was young and stupid and – hey I just checked the pattern and there is a *correction* to the measuring instructions. That cross back measurement? Really important. I would probably go more than 1/2 inch bigger if you want to move your arms.

So mine is all good if I don’t want to move my arms too much… But it would take so much work to fix it I’m thinking, well maybe someday.

LOve it! I think it’s gonna be so cute when you make matching ones for your boys. Don’t forget to post a cute family pic. :)

One of these days I’ll get the courage to actually make a sweater. But for now, it’s still socks… and more socks. lol

Cobblestone looks fantastic! What a great fit, and in 9 days no less!? I’m impressed

wow. 9 days. you are so fast! and it looks really great too.

That Cobblestone looks fanTAStic!!!

I knit Tubey. I didn’t like it… but I made a poor yarn substitution. Even so, I don’t think it will fit most people the way it’s pictured. I don’t think I’ll ever re-knit it, either. It was kind of a boring knit, and I think that was my biggest problem.

NINE days?? You are a knitting machine!! I was thinking about your late nights knitting this weekend as I had a few myself…but mine was mostly tinking & frogging (sum total for the hours of effort is still behind where I started on Friday-grrr).

Mini Cobblestomes…would that make them Cobblepebbles?? hee hee!

Hi, Kris,

das ist Cascade Tweed, oder?

Ich stricke für meinen Mann gerade einen Seamless Hybrid aus demselben Garn – selbe Farbe!!

Dein Pullover ist suuuperschön und passt ja perfekt!

Liebe Grüße

Great work!

looks great! I made and frogged tubey as I had made a huge mistake. It was easy to fit though

Nice 9 day project! It fits perfectly and I love the color.

WoW! Very impressive. Love the color.

Yowza, nine days?! That’s gotta be some kind of record. I am planning one of these myself, someday, but it’ll be modified for me (as fairly plain as it is, it’s still too fussy for my husband).

Fantastic Cobblestone! I think my husband may need one now.

9 days? Holy cow! It looks fantastic!

Cobblestone looks great!
I’ve knit Tubey and loved the fit at the beginning. I think it might only be suitable for girls with less boobs though.
Unfortunately the yarn I used stretched over time, which is partially due to the yarn, but also to the sweater construction. I’m still wearing it with a tank top underneath it and am planning on knitting another one one day with better yarn.

P.S.: I used some of the yarn you send me! Must remember to post pics one of these days on my poor neglected blog, but you can follow the link on my last post. Thought that since you gave it to me for free I would include it in my pif.

Congratulations! It looks great!!!

It looks great!!!! amazing job :-)

Awesome job on the Cobblestone, love the color. Hope you get to make the mini ones too.

Hooray! That is an awesome sweater. I might have to make it. I didn’t like it at all at first, but after seeing it all over Ravelry and blogland, I have changed my mind! Oh, and raglans with little to no seaming in wools with spit/felted join…the way to go!

That’s terrific! I have to admit [blasphemy]I didn’t really like the Cobblestone pattern[/blasphemy]. I do now, though. Yours looks great.

Your blog was given to me by someone on Knit U as a resource for yarn shops in the Frankfurt area.

I’ll be in that area in mid-May, and as a special treat to me, and as special torture to my buddy that I’m visiting, I HAVE to find at least one great yarn shop…and drag him along. [I pretend I hate sushi, his great love, and I tell him that if we have to eat sushi, he has to go to yarn shops with me. He really does hate the yarn shops.]

Oh, and on a long shot, if you have any recommendation in the Oslofjord area of Norway, I’ll be there visiting the relatives, too.

TIA, and if you don’t have time to reply, I completely understand.

A sweater in 9 days???? A flipping miracle, methinks. And super cute!

looks great! You’re a speed demon. I’ve been wanting to a do mini one (3 yr old size) first for my son and then attempt the bigger one for my husband. I figured the odds of completion would be higher on the toddler size ;)

Wow! The Cobblestone is fabulous! I have that pattern but haven’t dared start it yet.

re tubey; I suggest you look at Snow White by YSOLDA (just Google Ysolda) it is a similar look to tubey but IMHO a nicer sweater and clear instructions. She is a designer with some patterns in Twist Collective online knitting mag, so will be available for advice should you need it.
