You can where it on your trip!! Love it Leslie! You've inspired me once again!

LOVE this sweater!! Especially since there is no button band. You did a fabulous job knitting this and chose a great color. That pattern will have to go into my Faves also.

This is wonderful! I always get inspired when I come here!

Love the sweater! What a perfect cardigan for this fall/winter.

ok that is a perfect sweater. Love it!

Oh Leslie I LOVE this!!! It looks fantastic on you (as all your sweaters do) but your enthusiastic endorsement of this one makes me want to order the pattern quick. Don't you just love Norah's patterns? Even though the thought of super bulky yarn isn't something I would normally gravitate to (living on the beach) this looks like a real winner - thanks for the inspiration!

That's gorgeous!

That came out great. I love your choices in sweaters.

That looks great on you!

Wow, it's finished already? I seriously don't know how you knit big sweaters so quickly, it would take me months. I know you often only have one thing on the needles at once and that might be why, but it just looks like a whole lotta knitting to me ;) Looks wonderful too of course.

It looks great!!

I love this!! enjoy....

That looks great! I love the charcoal color too.

Came out perfect. What a great sweater.

Absolutely gorgeous! Love everything about it: the pattern, the color and style. Wow!!

Wow, yours looks so much nicer than the booklet! I thought it would be bunched at the bottom and give it a rounded-balloon shape, but yours is nice and straight. Beautiful!

It's beautiful! So flattering and I love the color. Such inspiration!

That looks great on you. It is hard for me to decide how large a size to make if it is oversized. I mean, how much ease do you need for oversized?

Okay, that is seriously beautiful. Love the pattern, the fit, the overall look. A winner!

I LOVE IT! I want to ask you if you block your sweaters? Because of you, I've moved on from children's sweaters to trying one for me. I have not blocked a sweater before and wouldn't even know how to start. Help!

What a gorgeous sweater!!! It's like having a blanket wrapped around you! Love the color. Great hand work. Is it a nice yarn to knit with? Soft on your hands? How many skeins did you use?

It turned out beautifully...just perfect for the seasons ahead. I love the front bands. wonderful job!

Oh wow! Can't they all be your fave? :)

Looks wonderful on you :) Might jump into my favs...

another one to add to the collection to love! it looks perfect on you! love. love. love.

Perfect! Love at first sight! I have to make one! :D

Wow. That really is a lovely sweater. I definitely will make note of this pattern.

Marvelous! I love how the cables add a spark of interest ... and I can just imagine how snuggly and cuddly this feels!

Muito, muito lindo, adorei:))

bjinhos

Wow! A new favorite to knit.

This is great! I want to cast on for it right now!

It really is beautiful. I totally get all the reasons you love it.

This is really lovely - looks like the perfect fall sweater! :o)

That looks so gorgeous and comfortable!! I love the colour you chose, too. it'll go with everything, perfectly.

Wow, this looks wonderful!
I immediately wanted to buy the pattern, to make one for myself instead of making something for my children wich I normally do.
But it seems that they don't ship outside the USA.
Do you know an other place where I can buy this pattern?
Youre blog is really inspiring!
Love from the Netherlands, Maryvonne

It looks GREAT!! Just added it to my list!!

Oh, I'm in love with this sweater! It looks perfect for chilly autumn days!

gorgeous - looks very cosy

I think it is one of my favorites too. :) Love this berocco pattern.

You seriously amaze me Leslie, really just a couple hours? And yes I know what you mean, that looks like a fun one to wear, and wear often.

I've been waiting to see this one finished! It looked like a great project to me, but I wanted to see it on a real person before buying the yarn. Of course, that may not do me any good. Seeing it on you is pretty much the same as seeing it on a model.

it's just lovely.

you amaze me, woman.

What a gorgeous sweater! It's definitely going on my must-knit list (which, incidentally, has gotten quite long since I discovered your blog a couple of months ago b/c I just adore your tastes!)...great job.

too cute. How do you whip these out so fast! sigh...maybe one day I will. I am STILL working on the back of the slouchy cartigan and let's see, it is two months now?!!

It's gorgeous, and my LYS owes you a sale! Someone came in today after reading your blog to buy the pattern!

Everytime you finish a sweater it's my favorite too. I sent this one around to my new knitting group so far there are three of us voting for this. We'll see. Someday I'm going to knuckle down and make a sweater. It's hard to pay retail now for yarn.

I'm not sure I would have given the pattern a second look, but yours - oh my - just stunning! It looks cozy and elegant at the same time. Lovely, lovely.

Leslie, what a wonderful slouchy, chic sweater. The yarn is just perfect for that style.

Of course, you are going to be wearing it over and over this autumn.

Best wishes.

Love it!! And it looks wonderful on you! Cyndi

What a gorgeous sweater! No wonder you love it but you always knit such fantastic things!

Of all the beautiful things you've knit, this is my favourite too. I love everything about it. And it is so YOU.

I think it would be "me" too. On the queue it goes...

I must say, I might have breezed by this pattern not giving it consideration and then I saw your finished project! Wow! It looks so cozy and comfy. Nice job! I love it. You sure whip these up quickly...how do you do that?!?! :)

You are ready to bring on Fall!

Love the way your sweater turned out! I just came across your blog today, I couldn't stop reading your posts- Thank you!:)

The sweater is great I love the pattern on it very nice not overbearing & on size 11 needles even better. It looks great on you.

Ok, that is a great sweater. Looks even better on you than on the model.

It looks fabulous on you! You know just what to knit that will look great on you.

Love love love this sweater. It's gorgous!

it's beautiful, leslie.
so beautiful.
nice work!

Like a big hug! Lovely!!

Lovely sweater. Perfect size, nice colour, cables and the pockets!! Gotta love the pockets :)

Now you're talkin'...

Another stunner! :)

Just lovely! You can't go wrong with a big, cozy sweater when the weather is starting to turn.

Really pretty! I like the simple detailing on the front panels. I'm like you in that I consider everything I finish knitting to be my favorite.

This is fabulous and looks absolutely exquisite on you.

wow this is beautiful! :) I love it!

Looks FANTASTIC! Love your photos much better then the originals too. Great sweater! If my needles were 'free' I'd CO right now!

Wow!!! I love this sweater. It does look like a favorite. One that could be worn all the time. I see a very cozy winter for you this year. :-)

Beautiful! It's good to hear you get so much satisfaction from what you knit! You must be making good choices!

Is it wrong t find myself trying to peek down and see what the boots are you're wearing with this one too?!

Love it! Definitely on my queue list. I may just have to copy your queue list to my queue list at this rate. I never realized I was this unoriginal.

gorgeous! I love it- makes me want to make one!!
And I may have to agree with you, I think it's my new favorite sweater you've made :)

Nicely done. It looks fabulous!

This is gorgeous! I'm kind of in love with it, now. This is definitely going on my short "to-knit" queue.

That is just so lovely. I understand why you might think it your favorite. Thanks for sharing.

Great sweater! Awesome!

It's absolutely gorgeous. I can see why it's your favorite. Enjoy!

Gorgeousity abounds. Texture, fit and color are just right. Another winner for sure.

OH MY HEAVENS! That is thee most stunning piece of knitting I have ever seen! Can I pay you to make me one? Pretty Please? ;)

ummmmm.......hasn't it occurred to anyone that ANYTHING....I mean anything, like a paper bag, would look lovely on Leslie?!? :)

Your sweater is great!

I am also making this one. Love it. Do you wear it belted or did you add buttons? you said you liked it closed and i was just wondering. hope you had a fun trip. I missed you!!!

Oh my goodness, I love it! The pockets, the wickerwork pattern, the cool styling...well done!!!

Love this! Looks so comfy and fantastic with jeans.

I will be going on a trip that requires a passport too,and since this will be a cruise to a hot place, naturally I am going to cast on wool and start this sweater. Thanks for the inspiration!
Chloe

This is beautiful! The pattern is amazing and the color is fantastic. Wonderful!

It's a nice sweater.

Absolutely Gorgeous!

I love that you pick these patterns that I'm not in love with, but then the sweater that you complete makes the pattern look amazing! You keep making my Ravelry wish list longer.

you're new favorite!? um, mine too!! :-) have fun on your trip!

I think this is my new favorite also! It is beautiful and inspires me to lose weight so I will look good in it!

Stunning!

I just found your blog through pinterest and I've got to say I love the sweater you made-just gorgeous!!!

I have just begun to knit this sweater in the very same charcoal grey Berroco yarn you used. I decided to make the sleeves full length and thought I'd eliminate the pockets. Seeing your beautiful work I have changed my mind. The pockets may not only be delightful to cold hands but might be critical to effect the proper drape. This project is a tad beyond my experience and skill and for the moment I am paralyzed until I can get next week. Seeing photos of your finished sweater I wish you had included tips and photos about the wickerwork pattern for confused folks like me. Thanks and congratulations.

hello!
this is Maria from Italy. I'going slightly mad... I cannot find anywhere the pattern for astor cardigan. I wrote Berroco, but they tell me they cannot help me. Please, can you just help me?
thank you very much! and my compliments for your work.

I also love the fact that people all over the world can connect over a perfect sweaters :-)

I represent South Africa. :-)
