The Shalom Cardigan pattern is now available as a free pdf download on my sidebar. I'm crossing my fingers that I haven't made any mistakes. Please let me know if you have any trouble with the download or the pattern. And certainly send me links to your finished cardigan. I can't wait to see if anyone else makes one!

Wow that is lovely.
Your sweater is beautiful and I'm really impressed that the yarn came from an existing sweater. Good job!
I love it. I'm printing it out as we speak and cant' wait to get started.
tis awesome! i would love to make one!
for some reason, i can't download the pattern, though... :-\
Really simple and stylish!
It's lovely - how generous of you!
gorgeouove this.
What a great pattern. It's icing on the cake that you were able to use vintage yarn.
Thanks for the free pattern!
This is wonderful. I've downloaded the pattern and have it in my queue! Maybe I'll make thing my next project... Thank you!!!
Meghan, your sweater is absolutely beautiful! And to think you totally recycled the fibre from another sweater! That would have been the equivelant of me raising the sheep, sheering them, spinning the wool and then knitting the sweater. Don't think that will be happening anytime soon!
Wow! Absolutely impressed with your entire process of recycling the yarn AND designing this adorable sweater. (I'm e-mailing this sweater pattern to my daughter. I know she would want me to knit a sweater for her just like this.)
thanks for a lovely pattern! I just have to knit this!
beautiful sweater---love the design! The back view is especially nice!
Wow, you're clearly a woman of your word - that was super fast! This one's going straight to my Ravelry queue while I look for suitably lovely yarn!
what a lovely sweater... I'm more impressed that it's with thrifted yarn... my favorite things to reuse/recycle... and thank you for posting the pattern great job!
That is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
hi, I found your sweater and fell in love :) I´m wondering how much yarn you used?
Thanks everyone for your lovely comments--unfortunately blogger rarely gives me your email address, so I usually can't respond personally.
ZIINA--very good question about the yarn amount. Unfortunately, I don't have a good scale at home, so I haven't been able to calculate the yardage at this point. May I suggest that you check out similarly gauged short sleeve or mid-length sleeved sweaters for an estimate? Keep in mind that the yoke takes quite a few stitches. AND, if anyone makes this, I would love to get your project details (or post them on ravelry) so we can learn from one another.
thanks again everyone!

What a cute cardigan. I might try making this one when some of my other projects are finished :)
I love this! Thanks for creating the pattern. I'm working on the Juliet now, but I think I will make this next!
This is totally adorable!!! I can't wait to make 12!! Thanks for the pattern ;)
wow! that is so great! i love that you recycled the yarn too. Thanks for sharing the pattern! I was going to make the Juliet, but I may make this instead!
Hi, mine is finished: http://ziinanblogi.blogspot.com/2008/03/kevtt-rinnassa.html
And it´s in ravelry, too. I wrote down my adjustments for bigger girls.
i just downloaded it - so clever and unique! now i'm just gonna have to tweak it a bit to fit my small frame. :)
Oooh, ooh! I love it! I'm so glad to have seen this. :)
I have seen Shalom around and I am definitely going to knit it - great 1st design, I wish I had 1/2 you talent!

That looks cute. :)kwmlymc
wow thank you so much!
I love this sweater. Would you have any recommendations for the yarns?
Hi Martine,
I have no way of contacting you, so I hope you'll check back here. I don't have any yarns I can recommend for Shalom, since I only used the recycled yarn. However, I would highly suggest visiting the Shalom Cardigan page on ravelry.com to see what everyone else has been using. I'm sure there will be many varied suggestions. thanks for visiting!
