Strawberry Shortcake themed mini skeins for a holiday treat! With the 9 mini skeins (10th is Angel Cake and was reserved for the edging), started with the darkest and worked my way through the rainbow. Purple Pie Man Huckleberry Pie Blueberry Muffin Apple Dumplin Lime Chiffon Lemon Meringue Orange Blossom Raspberry Torte Strawberry Shortcake Knit…
Wanted something that would work as a baby dress this summer and then be a tunic as she gets older. Adjusted the pattern to work in the round, be more full of a dress, and have ties instead of shoulder straps. Lace is slightly askew on part of the skirt but it’s not too noticeable….
mods – increased the number of pattern rows to optimize usage of the skeins on hand of my handspun. 1 skein orange+orange, 2 skein orange+pink, 1 skein pink+pink increased the number of repeats in orange+pink to use more. needs blocking.
Prototype + JOMR striped knitalong (aug-sept), Yarniacs fingering knitalong (8/31). showing pics of only non design elements intentionally for now. need to weave ends still, 9/1.
Started for zk2020 at home. Knitting in laceweight and will make it larger than the pattern written.
