Hello, I'm new to SKC and I joined up because Fifi is the summer KAL. I finished Fifi yesterday. The yarn I used was Calmer in the color Laurel (4 full balls and a tiny bit from a 5th ball for one sleeve). I made the length of the body longer by 4 or 5 inches. Also, I didn't want cap sleeves as in the pattern. So I knitted the cable pattern 2 or 3 more times to make the sleeves longer. More pictures on my blog. Friday, August 03, 2007
