friday knitting

Friday, June 12, 2009

today i give you the botancial medallion cardi, made with blue sky alpaca skinny cotton in color zinc. this cardi is full of cables, texture and drape. the design is brilliant and i am very pleased with how it turned out. i have a sneaking suspicion that when my mom sees it, she is going to tell me she "must" have it.






please enjoy....

  1. I don't think your mom is the only that is going to be coveting that gorgeous cardi!! I know I love it!

    I had my sewing class last night! I was wrong about it being one night. It's a three class lesson (each class is 2.5 hours). At this point, I'm feeling a little more confused than before I took the class. I am very excited for next week when we actually get to sew.

  3. Breathtaking pattern; I'm sure the knitting is too, up close. It's a mystery to me, lace knitting.
    Thank you for sharing.
