FOs...

My Lace Up Cami from the Spring issue of Vogue Knitting.

It was actually a pretty easy knit, but the pattern was horrendous. I've talked to other knitters and the general agreement seems to be that Vogue patterns SUCK. I found a mistake in the very first row of the Cami pattern, and math was off for the armholes. I also had to single crochet around all the upper edges because the 1x1 ribbing was way floppy. The tank wears well, tho!

That is so cute! Is there an errata for the pattern? It's so cute...yet another one I've been eyeing to make.

Christie, as far as I know, there's no errata for this pattern. I've heard tell that Vogue is butts up for putting out errata and you're pretty much on your own when it comes down to it.

If you *do* end up wanting to make this, let me know and I can post more detailed info on the mistakes I found.

Oh I love it! I was looking at the online vogue pictures and wanted to ask my mom to buy it for me because I love that sweater. (I live in Germany)
You've used my color and done a great job. Did it take you long?
