When you are having fun - as the saying goes.
Another week at the home of Shades of Shetland....the weather has been lovely (for November) and we've found a "new" trail to walk - at our usual park - but going North rather than our usual going South trail. It's longer - takes about an hour - which is what we need now that we've gotten used to walking more. Lackie and Daisy love the longer walks too!
So, not much knitting progress this week -- but I did work out the shoulder shaping for the back of Anastasiya - and I just finished - used the Japanese short row method and it looks quite nice.

These are my shoulder shaping guidelines....I'd better not lose this so that I can make the front shoulders match. |

I love the way the plaid motif goes up the shoulder -- this should look good when I do a 3 needle bind off joining the shoulders together. |
So now I just have to look at the front V neck shaping -- I think I want mine to be a bit deeper V than called for in the pattern.
When I'm being a good knitter I have notes like that too. When I'm being a slacker I end up trying to read my knitting, with mixed results. LOL
ReplyDeleteLovin' the plaid!!
That's a good idea - post your notes, so you don't lose them - also, then those of us that follow *ahem* can benefit too! lol! Thanks Anne! :)
ReplyDeleteglad to know I'm not the only one to do short row sketches like that!
ReplyDeleteHi Anne,
