Fitting the Harvest Cardigan, part II

This is turning into a regular documentary, answering such basic questions as "do dye baths really matter?" and "What if the standard sizes don't fit my body type?".
I'm continuing on the Harvest Cardigan with new elan. It seems my Muse is done with socks, socks suck and especially patterns that only have one size and are too large and silly. (Simple stockinette stitch, so far, seems okay for socks. But the pair of Karl's socks I'm knitting for Eisirt have fallen from grace.)
