DROPSi Alpaca sobib suurepäraselt heegeldamiseks!

Ostsin millalgi ilusat laimirohelist DROPS Alpacat kroogitud passega sviitri jaoks DROPS 119-2

Aga kuna tahtsin teha ühekordse lõngaga, mitte kahekordse, siis jäi kude hõre ja kudum seisma.

Aga kui nägin Facebooki grupis DROPS ♥ Lace! ilusat pitsilist heegeldatud jakki, siis otsisin lõnga uuesti välja.

Mustriks on Jaapani skeemid.
Kliki seal pildil ja salvesta arvutisse. Jäävad kenasti suured ja loetavad.

My picture is in "VogueKnitting" !

I'm so proud of myself. My lovely lace blouse is in "Vogue Knitting" website .

I'm going to bed now with terrible pain.my tooth was taken out yesterday so....

Finished !

Finally I have finished the lacy blouse from Vogue Knitting spring/summer 2007 magazine.


It was serious marathon for me, not because it was difficult to do, no way, it was really easy to knit. Pattern is easy to remember and small (OK medium size;) )pieces get finished fast ( if you have time of course;) )
I never before FINISHED so big project so fast .It took about 2weeks only. 2-4 hours every evening( few days-evenings off as well).
Used 7 skeins of Sirdar 'SilkyLook' double knitting yarn.Needles 3.5mm. And loads of patience.

I might get used to make big things !

Now I'm thinking should I make mini lace
blouse for my little girl as well?

(Edit:
Yeah,it could be lovely but new exciting projects coming and ....maybe some other time ;> )

Lacy belly-top!

That's how my little girl calls it!She said:" Your belly top is so beautiful!" It's so sweet to hear. ;)

Thank you Anneli for pushing me to show you picture where I wear my almost finished lace blouse:

It has been so far few days already but didn't get time to get pic. Now it's done finally! (pic not a blouse ;) )

I am not happy with underarms(like you can see). My shoulders are low and usually have to add some padding under shoulder seems for ready made clothes as well. But hopefully the weight of lower part will stretch it out.

The acorn edging for bottom of lower part is made just have to pick up stitches across edge of middle insert and have a go...Sounds easy but takes time again....

I didn't knit sleeves as long as pattern said, also made neck hole smaller by knitting sides bit wider(less stitches for neck hole). It looks better for me this way!

OK,have to get it finished fast (to get started with next piece....hopelessly hooked by knitting as I am ;) )

Thank you for visiting me again!

Almost there...

Bodice is done ,also upper parts of sleeves:

Really like edging lace for sleeves,its done all in one piece ,even it looks like made separately.

Now have to pick up stitches along top of edging(bottom on this pic) and knit lower part of sleeve.

Where the time is flying...

Have finished back for this beautiful white lace blouse and front piece is almost finished as well.

At some point found the back is too wide. Started to panic it will come tooo big. Then next morning mesured again and it's not soo bad.

will knit lower part at very last ,than can try it on and see how long to make.

Newby in my dream list.

I fell in love with beautiful knitted lace dress from Vogue Knitting Spring/Summer 2007.

Dreaming about making it as blouse,without lowest skirt part.

I'm a bit worried about very open neckline,maybe it will fall over shoulders,hopefully not.

Today even got yarn for it: Sirdar's 'Silky look' double knit,it's acrylic but will last longer than cotton. Telling the truth it was nicest yarn in local small yarn shop which is suitable for this lovely dress.

Usually I don't have enough patient to make so big projects but this is too beautiful to skip.
