Kathleen

I was surprised when you chose to knit that again. I have read many complaints about knitting with that Summer Tweed. Kevin had gotten me a skein of it to try. I just don't care for it. But it is lovely to look at.

Marina

Oh, my. I need to grow up. Big or small, they stay in my cupboard as one day, I'll be the right size.

Kim

Looking foward to seeing Chamomile, especially against the foliage :-)). You have the patience of a saint, grrl!!

Carole

Good for you for having the patience to fix it and make it right. After seeing Norma's Chamomile in person, I know yours will be gorgeous, too. Love the color.

Cassie

Wow, now that's determination. I can't even knit one sweater and you're frogging and reknitting to change the size. Admirably thrifty, you are.

Cara

Good for you! So glad it's working out. I hope the leaves stay intact for the photoshoot!

Teri

The color of Chamomile is just perfect. Sorry that the yarn is hard on your arms and hands. Slow and easy does it, although you're not slow at anything! :)

Lolly

Perfect--can't wait to see her with the autumn leaves as background!

Vicki

Oooh, that's going to be a perfect fall sweater!

Colleen

That's a great sweater, in a great colorway. Looking forward to seeing a remodeling shot.

claudia

A new Chamomile for a healthier Margene! Yeah!

Isela

It is great that you are going to re-knit it again. I can't wait to see it finished. :)

June

I know what you mean about the clothes fitting issue! Good for you, girlfriend! Here's hoping that you never need the "big clothes" again!

regina

Your tenacity and perseverance are inspiring. I don't think I would have the "stick-to-itiveness" or patience to re-knit a sweater, but I'm sure the result will be well worth it. It's a beautiful sweater and the colourway is stupendous! Like you, I'm so NOT ready for the trees to shed their leaves (though I would like to stop getting pelted with acorns).

Wanda

It really is a beautiful color. Like I said before, Summer Tweed comes in some of the most gorgeous colors, but you know how I feel about it. I am glad that since you are reknitting it, and washed it that the washed yarn feels softer to knit. Once you put all of it together and give it a good soak, I bet the sweater will feel as good as it looks. Good for you for losing the weight and sticking to your fitness goals! I see nothing wrong with reknitting a sweater that you love so much to fit in a smaller size, that's a great reason to reknit!

PJ

WOW!...now that is sooooo inspiring!!

Juno

There's process...and there's process. I'm impressed.

Lisa in Oregon

me too on the back pain issue. My back "went out" for the first time 4 years ago...but I have still not gotten into the shape I want to be to prevent it happening whenever it wants.

Good for you Margene, you encourage me. :)

Laura

I've been there with the back pain, it was my most productive knitting month ever. I can tell when I've skipped the gym too much, the back lets me know with a twinge or two of pain.

Love that Summer Tweed! Mom's right, nothing good ever comes easy, and that Tweed is my weakness. I'm looking forward to seeing what you've done with it.

Lauren

Good for you grrl!

Heather

Good luck with it! Good idea to frog it. Sometimes frogging is therapeutic I think.

Kim/Chef Messy

You are an inspiration. I'd happily get rid of all my sweaters to be thinner. Maybe even my scarves too. Well, MAYBE....

Chelle

Margene - Summer Tweed is it? Well, it sounds from your posting that it's somwhat hard to work with yarn - but your resulting sweater is beautiful. The color will be so lovely on you and perfect for fall.

I wouldn't want back trouble as motivation for losing weight, but I sure would love to drop 20 lbs myself. Chelle

Kathy

That's great! I'm sure that you will really love Chamomile (the Second Act) in its new size. It's of no use sitting, unworn, in your closet.

debbie

looking forward to the finished chamomile. and i complain about frogging a half-done sock! you are an inspiration to me!
