I really want to get the Falling Stars Kit from Knitpicks. I'm also terrified of doing steeks but feel compelled to buy the kit NOW because they might sell out. Talk about pressure. I know me, though. Taking on new projects that are over my head is a bad habit This sweater is just too pretty to have sit unfinished and collect dust. So I need to get over my steek fear. Has anyone on my flist made things with steeks? I saw this technique, which is very pretty, but I have flashbacks to putting that zipper in my grandson's sweater a few years ago which are rather alarming.

Thanks for the links. I did see eunnyjang's blog, but I was at work and didn't have a lot of time to spend on it.

Knowing myself and the way I knit, I agree that using a hand stitch will be the best way to go and lay off the caffiene that day, hee he. Also, I have lots of wool left over from the various shawls I'm knitting, I think it will be a similar gauge, and I'll just do up a test swatch to get the feel for it.

I went ahead and ordered it, because, I'm going to make it work! Power of positive thinking and all, right?

Thanks for the tips.
