Working Downwards
I'm working downwards on the back of my gilet, the patterns matching the patterns on the front. There are a lot of stitches, 215 at the moment, which is why the pattern recommends using a circular needle, even though it is worked back and forth.
It's going to be beautiful, is it for a competition, or will you be able to wear it and enjoy it straightaway?
ReplyDeleteIt’s for competition I’m afraid, so it’ll be a while before I can wear it.
DeleteReally really pretty and beautifully knit !!!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the finished garment! The structure of this is fascinating. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteLooks so pretty!! :)
ReplyDeleteIs it a shawl type? Looks very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteIt’s a gilet, a sleeveless jacket, with an unusual construction.
