What is with this high cloud, June gloom? I hate it! I would much rather just have it rain or be the normal, misty marine layer. Okay, what I really want is the SUNSHINE!
I have been working on the Vogue multi-pattern top and here is the progress.
So far I have found 3 lines with mistakes in the chart. Rather annoying but I am marking them as I go so if anyone else out there decides to knit it I can pass along my corrections. Nothing too big, just a few yo’s missing when the M1’s happen to keep the stitch count correct. I do love how it’s turning out. The colors are so bright and the lace patterns are a good mix. The pattern in the pink yarn is a pain in the butt, you have to do patterning on both right & wrong sides. I hate that. But the rest of the lacework is on every right side row. I am a little less than halfway done with the back. It’s not the fastest knit but for lace & intarsia it goes pretty fast. I like that it only has a front & back, no sleeves. You increase once you hit the underarm shaping instead of decreasing so you make the sleevecaps as you knit the back and front. Love it!
I can’t wait for this one to be done so I can wear it! I will have to do a serious skirt check soon to see what skirts match, or come close enough. Jeans would be really cute too. Ah, I just like it.
