…I couldn’t wait ’til Friday to share this one! this is Truss, another piece from Shibui’s FW15 collection (and a feature for this week’s newsletter; getting these photos done and edited has given me a much needed head-start for Thursday).
I knit the pattern as written (for the smallest size) except I made it about 2-1/2″ longer. It’s perfect!
This one uses Maai and Pebble held together on a size 9 needle. One of my best knitting experiences in a long time. Even the finishing, which was seaming the underarms and 7″ of the side seams (which I did with needlepoint thread) was easy. You can see more details on my Ravelry project page.
And of course, FO photoshoots with Katie are always a treat.
I think Charlie enjoyed it too!
Charlie says it's a #1 knit, and he's right! Wonderful sweater, great photos, and you are so much more photogenic than the enigmatic Shibui model!
Oh my gosh, I love it!
Wow, I LOVE this! Looks beautiful on you too.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! You will get so much wear out of that! Charlie…well he's as smart as he is cute!
That looks great! Beautiful job! Enjoy wearing it!
I'm always in awe of your knitting and this piece is no exception ~ it's beautiful! Charlie is adorable! 🙂
That is a gorgeous and completely wearable project. In fact, Truss is so beautiful it looks like you bought from a fancy designer store! Love, love, love!!
Oh my goodness. Charlie looks like a little director!! 😉
That is One.Great.Piece. of Knitwear! And it looks perfect on you. Yeah, I can see why you had to finish it. Love Charlie's pic…adds just the right touch to Marmie's Project Runway photo shoot!Cheers~
Gorgeous, Mary! I LOVE it!
Perfect! Love the photo of you just above Charlie's. Can see the 3-year-old birthday girl in you still!
I love this and want to knit it soon
