Aren't you clever! There's no way I'd ever figure all that out! I'd love to see the one you've made. My Grandmother could knit, crochet, embroidery, sew--you name it, she could do it. Your post reminded me of her. Thanks, Beth!

Wow thanks! i just try my best to be resourseful and save time. i love to do things like this so it doesnt seam hard, but if it does get to be a challenge, i just start over with whatever it is and put that on my 'tried and didnt work' list.
Maybe i WIll post some pictures of it! (as soon as i finish it that is :))

This looks interesting and I'd knit or crochet it. Heck, maybe I'll attempt one of each.

Anyway, what bust size or estimated bust size for this?? I'm a 37" and have broad shoulders. Would it work for me??

Sean,
I think the bust size is 34" but i'm not compleately sure.
I have broad shoulders too (and long arms) but it fits ok. I'm sure you could increaseit more or make more stiches to fit your measurements
