Some new designs
Friday 10th August 2012
Caving inspired designs, soon to be kits, all knitted up, with the versions you see here knitted and checked by the amazing
Fiona, patt checked and raring to go.
First, The Singing River Shrug:
It comes in 2 versions, this one being the version that features a ribbon, corset-style back. The cuffs are flared, lightly beaded and simple lace.
There is another version, with a grafted back thus allowing it to double as a scarf:
Next, The Charterhouse Mittens, with an opposing ‘rift’ of beaded lace running across the backs of the hands. Here we are working in Fine Lace and Kidsilk Haze, except for the final frill, Kidsilk Haze only. Really, it hardly merits the word ‘lace’ as it is simply eyelets that mirror the gently twisting line of beads:
And now the understated and modest Rhumba Alley Cuffs. A froth of twirls, beads and twisting lace:
I am emerging from my twisted, twirly design phase and am now deeply into the shrug/bolero phase. Currently on the needles are 2 shrugs, 1 with deep puffed sleeves and a lace rib back, and another with simple rib-cuff short sleeves and beads. Pics soon.
