Extra Texture: Candy Stripes

Aug 29, 2006 15:25

My favourite t.shirts this summer have been my M&S light turquoise and limey green ones, and a deep fuschia pink vest. So I have decided to make a waistcoat to wear over them for a bit of added warmth. I've started the stripey rib and plan to do wide bands of stripes for the main part in lime and turquoise with thinner stripes of the pinks and ( Read more... )

I LOVE those colors together! And it would be fun to see in-progress pictures--moremoremoremore, please.

Though I know exactly what you mean about starting knitting projects that then seem to go nowhere . . .

Love the color ranges there . . . perfect for summertime. ^___^

So do you take orders for dolly sweaters? My Petite Ai would love a sweater for fall . . . and of course I have other waifs in need of some sweaters. I can only hope right?

I'm working on some Petite knits! As soon as I'm happy with them I'll post piccies and let you know.

Thanks! ^_^

Great photo! And what's funny is tonight my co-worker and I were talking about that very thing! She brought in her knitting and said this one was a sweater. I asked her if she was ever going to bring in a finished product and she said probably not! She always has so many going on at once and then decides she doesn't like them before she finishes them!!

Thanks! Know that feeling well. Though I have finished a couple of things this year.....not enuff though!

nice bright colours! need to look at knitting blogs again - looking at your knitting reminds me i've got a couple projects i need to finish up or they'll die unloved and mangled in the basket.

Some of my projects are definitely never going to be finished now - I really must undo them.
I love reading knitting blogs!
