Pink and brown dress - done!

Finished this on Dec 31st and pics (except the last photo) are taken in our backyard just before we left the house to go see fireworks. For some reasons this dress is a hit and little girl has literally lived in it for a past few days as she really loves it.

Next day I added little snowflake embellishment on front as seen on the last picture. Maybe will add some more as per request (constantly repeated!) of dress owner.

WIP brown and pale pink

I have always liked pale pink and chocolate brown combination but my girls seemed to favour only pink with no additions. Last night I just happened to see these two yarns side by side and started knitting instantly regardless of future owners disapproval. Luckily she was very happy this morning when saw this knit.

Would be nice to finish tonight but I don't think that's going to happen. Tomorrow would be good too but not sure of that either as I have some other knitting projects to be finished some time soon. Though the knitted piece is almost twice the size as WIP photo taken earlier today when we had just the perfect weather and very enjoyable for outdoor knitting.

Cinnamon cardigan

I have finished Cinnamon jacket, a test knit for Elena Nodel. I used the yarn I dyed and showed in this post. It was rather quick knit and I had two main distractions to post it here earlier. I couldn't find nice buttons (still hope to come over nicer ones and replace these temporary ones) and I couldn't make little girl to agree to do photos. Modelled shots are running as always.

I feel sorry that yarn was just enough to finish garment and I couldn't make pockets as pattern suggests.

Design is pretty and simple yet very eye catching and with beautiful clear lines. The pattern will be released some time in the next months. Check designer's website for updates :)
