I have gotten this far, and now am stuck!! There is nowhere for the legs to come out up by the collar. It actually looks like the sweater was knit backwards because the two "wings" are near the bottom of the body of the sweater instead of up near the collar. I really think I followed the pattern correctly so I don't know what happened! I am wondering if I can just knit a rib at the end here and make that the collar of the sweater. Otherwise I may have to start all over...


Jill and I viewed the sweater here in Bilbao! Although it's super-cute, we think you should try again!! Love you lots! (Hope no one tries those knitting directions! JaJa!!
