It's been a whirlwind month over here and I apologize for the absence! My husband and I had a little traveling to do and I had another fantabulous deadline to prepare for which left the blog a little lonesome.
There are so many good things to share including my first sweater pattern in print! I'm only a wee bit excited about it. Not that I know the exact page number or anything like that.
It's a simple sweater with a little peek at the sleeve. I originally imagined it being knitted in a dark color in a yarn with lots of drape like silk or bamboo. For the magazine I knitted it in cotton and added some random stripes. To be honest I loved this result too!
I took a quick shot of myself wearing it before I mailed it out. Sorry for the cropped head – my hair was rediculous that day.
I like that the top I first envisioned as a "going out" top can be transfored into everday wear. I hope you'll grab a copy of VK and cast on one!
Happy knitting!

As I am of a “certain age” I have been looking for something with a sexy aura that still covers some wobbly bits. Enter your sweater. Can see it in a dark color but also in a summery light green with white pants for summer. Your youthful striped cotton version would look great on my daughter. I am SO glad I am a VK subscriber!
