I have finished my second WIP.
I wouldn't recommend the patter at all - the stitch guide doesn't actually work out as per the pattern - missing lots of rows to make it the right length in bodice, body and sleeves. I had to add a lot of rows to get it to a length I was semi-happy about. The body could have done with more length. It is a small fit - not what the pattern said and I double checked the stitch and row gauge a couple of times.
Still it might go nice with a skirt.
Now to dig out the third WIP. IF I can remember where I have stashed it!
Easier to find than I thought.
This was started in the late nineties if I remember rightly....
This is as far as I got.
Looking forward to finishing this one.
Congratulations on finishing this sweater, this was the one with the difficult yarn wasn't it? It looks good on you! The vest is also a beautiful pattern, I look forward to see the finished result!
ReplyDeleteI'm back in circulation (sort of) and I have to say that your red top goes rather well with the trousers (but then you wouldn't have put them together if it didn't!). I do like the look of your latest WIP.
