Comments about Madelinetosh Creature Comforts Cardi PDF:
This pattern is not accurate. It calls for 6 skeins for a size medium but in fact requires 10. The pattern states that it knits up in a loose weave with size 8 needles which is also untrue. In order for this yarn to knit up in a loose weave you would have to use size 10 needles. Fortunately I used a yarn that doesn't have a dye lot or I would have had to junk the whole thing.

Merchant response: Looking at the results of other size medium Creature Comfort Cardi projects on Ravelry, 6 skeins is the correct number when using Madelinetosh Vintage on a US 8. Be sure to do a gauge swatch first to determine the correct needle size for your knitting.
