it’s almost the end of April…I just heard on the radio that we’ve had 67 cm of snowfall
so far this month – really? what’s up with that? well, it is sure to end
sometime…
I had a button sewing day today. I did make a sleeveless
stockinette shell to go with my sister’s 1RT raglan – I used the tank pattern
from No 39, ‘Tie One On’, made the neck
higher and didn’t shape the side seams –
really just used the pattern for the hems and edges, I guess – it is quick,
easy and makes a nice finished piece without too much fuss. It took me this
long to get the buttons on the cardigan, so I thought I’d tell you about it
before I finally got it in the mail…
Another thing that has been hanging around was the lace
cardi that I did on the standard gauge machine to simulate the mid gauge
pattern from KS190 (see Jan 26/14) – I made it in Cannele (Yeoman Yarns)
glycine – the colour is unusual – not quite a lilac and not really a pale blue
– I finally found some little ball buttons that are perfect on it – I’m totally
happy with this one!
(and I have another one that I'll tell you about later!)
