Whoa!!!! that was quick!
I love the colour and think it's looks really nice on you..that slimming effect of the ribbings works?

It's such a gorgeous tailored style, looks great on you. I was not going to knit this (even though it was the design I liked best in this issue of IK) because I thought it will be too bulky. But I am so tempted now seeing how yours turned out so nice. I wonder which size you knitted because your yarn is thinner gauge than that in the pattern.

OH MY GOSH. I think I only saw a few inches only last week and you've finished it already?! I can't believe it!

It looks so lovely on you. Really =)

Ladies, thanks for all your compliments!
Erin: I knitted a swatch and the gauge was 22sts x 28rows=4"x4", using 3.5mm needle. Based on bust circumference of 36", I followed the instrucition of size 48". Yes, i do agreed that if we used yarns as according to the pattern called for will be bulky. Dk is just nice, it has a vy soft and nice finishing. I like it!
