Well, I seem to be on a roll. I’d not been allowing myself to start any other projects until my Crazy Stripes cardigan was finished, but I had plenty of projects lining up in the wings.
You may remember this little pile of goodies from this year’s Knitting and Stitching Show.
Well, in just three days, and with the help of my shiny new Singer overlocker, that llama fabric has become this.
I added about an inch in length to the body at the tracing stage. Otherwise it’s the same as my previous pink one from the same pattern, though I possibly used less of the seam allowance as I was nervous about the overlocker blade slicing too much off the edges. I wpuld potentially attempt to alter the neckline so it’s not quite so wide, were I to make this top again. But in general, I’d say I’m pretty pleased with this make.
Now, what shall I make next?
I love this shirt! So cute! I think the black sleeves really make it
Thanks! I had the sleeves already cut from my last top, and thought the llama fabric would work well with them. Glad you think so too!
Oh that is just gorgeous. If you’re stuck for your next project then feel free to make me a llama top too😉
Sadly, the leftovers are not quite enough for another top.
It was worth a try😉
