Today is Monday, which means we are talking about needlework. Have a nice day (evening), dear girls, needlewomen! 🌼 😘
I really hope that all is well with you during this turbulent time. Yes, the year of the coronavirus has been a tough year: many changes 😥 Our work used to be anywhere but not at home. And this year we worked from home all the time. This means more energy and time for yourself. What to do in your free time when there is more of it? Yes, I know, you know the answer! 😁 Of course, do needlework!
Today I will show you one of my works from this period. I knitted a jacket.
I liked the combination of colors: brown and pink. The pink color enlivens the brown color and the product looks more festive. I wanted to use a jacquard pattern, and not just knit with a straight line of transition to another color. I liked the bottom line, but ....! I made a mistake (here I cry hard) 😭
I thought my butt (sorry girls) was smaller. This is a joke!!! 😅 I did not take into account that the jacquard pattern does not stretch like a regular knit. It was insulting !!!
I had to make unplanned incisions on the sides. When I imagined that I needed to unravel everything and knit the jacket again, I felt sick. And I decided to leave it as it is.
I added some pink beads to the edges of the triangles. It is not visible in the photo, but it looks very gentle: it shimmers a little. And in general, despite my mistake, I am satisfied with my jacket.
I'm sure you've had a very productive week! 🌺
