Hi Mary Anne,
Thanks so much for sharing all your wisdom at the Knit Knack seminar this year. It was great to see you again. I love your new patterns and just wanted to share with you my newest creation. I wanted something for summer, so I made a sleeveless Girlfriend Hoodie (adding the hand-transferred lace like your blogpost: http://knitwords.blogspot.ca/2016/05/obsessive-compulsive-addictive.html) and am very pleased with the way it turned out. I shaped the armholes just like the pattern and finished with #2 from your ‘50 ways to love your knitter’. Now the difficult decision - what to make next!
Thanks, Karen
Gosh, that was fast, and doesn’t it look great! Impressive job, Karen! I love hearing how I inspired someone else to knit! I feel like the gauntlet has been thrown down! She used a full repeat of the ‘Battenburg’ stitch pattern up the front – I only did half on either side of the zipper…oh, how the ideas spark! I do have a cone of red ‘Bounce’ [http://knitwords.blogspot.ca/2008/06/thought-id-bounce-this-by-you.html ] that I’ve been hoarding for the perfect project – a summer hoodie would be just the thing since I know the yarn won’t do a full-on long sleeve one. Hummm…I’ve been wanting to try that decrease hack again!

Hi Karen! Great job indeed. This is a terrific pattern (the hoodie) and easy to whip up. Like the sleeveless one very much. Thanks to both for sharing with us.
