wrap with slits.

[dilyca2006]

From the coats and clark website does not quite fit on me like it does on the model!!!

Very nice would like to see a photo of you wearing it too looks like it turned out really nice.

[dilyca2006]

I will have to have someone take a pic of me wearing it!!!! Thanks.

[khammill]

Please do! I just copied that pattern yesterday. How does it fit you differently?

Very nice!

[jeannej]

It's very pretty, Diane - I love your color choice. I hope you'll be able to figure a way to alter the pattern so that it better suits you. Thanks for sharing.

[pat54]

very pretty. I'm always trying new scarf patterns

[Startigerlily]

Pretty! Love the color.

[dilyca2006]

Thanks everyone.

Well. I am a bigger girl then the model of the wrap.

It looks longer on me then it does on her. Of course. I don't have a full length mirror and this is me looking down at how it looks on me!!!LOL I will get my husband to take a picture. I am not sure how one would be able to alter unless it was made wider, shorter or longer then the pattern calls for.

Very pretty, I love red my favorite color!

[dilyca2006]

Thanks. It was 2 different brands of yarn labeled 2 different colors, but, I can't tell the difference!!!LOL

 

I really like it

[grandmalolly]

I think it looks great! Comparing the 2 pictures, it looks like they just have the inside edge turned up like a collar and that their slit is higher up their ends are longer. Regardless, I think you did a great job!

Thanks Kris. I didn't do the edging like the pattern says. I am not real fond of a reverse sc!! I sc'd all the way then did the sc chain 3 double chain in the same stitch skip 2 sc chain 3 double chain in the same stitch thing all the say around.

I love it! I think it looks great on you.

[dilyca2006]

Thanks. I might just have to keep it. I don't keep many that I make. They usually go to someone else!!!

[darski]

I love yours. Such a neat colour and it looks so pretty on.

 

I find that mine is a goodly bit smaller than it looks on the model as well. I plan to wear mine with the slit over my shoulder. I just hope it works. I would hate to spend all that time and not be able to use it... especially as it is actually for me ... what a novel concept

[dilyca2006]

Darski Thanks.

I think I might try to see about wearing the slit over the shoulder, that is a really need idea.

My friend that made one suggested making it longer and wider, I didn't count rows after I got the slit done, I just made sure that It was at least 80 inches long like it suggested.

I think it looks great too.... I love the color and it looks wonderful on you.... Nice pattern... GBU!:)

[dilyca2006]

Thanks Dawn.

[Gardener]

I think its gorgeous, and I like the way it looks on you.

[dilyca2006]

Thank you Cindy!!

I love it on you! It looks much better on than the original pic. I definitely think you should keep it & wear it & show it off. I'm sure after you get a few compliments, you'll change your mind about it.

 

BTW, I think we all need to stop comparing ourselves with the models who are usually no bigger than a size zero. It's self-defeating to compare our normal bodies with their skinny ones. I'm 5'7" & 150 lbs, perfect size 12. I'm not fat, but I'd probably look twice as big as one of those models standing next to one....

[dilyca2006]

Thanks... And, your BTW is so right on!!! I am close to 50 (and I know that is not old by any means) and 45 pounds heavier then I was when my husband and I got married and I thought I was fat then!!!!LOL I know that I could lose some weight. I would breath better a few pounds lighter. I know that this is something that I should not obcess over. Thank you for the reminder!!!!!!!!
