Audrey
at last!
This project is a great first Rowan project, as long as you can count and are careful reading the instructions. The ribbed front and back have a lovely dart that makes the whole garment stand out, but which can also be slightly frustrating to execute correctly. This project provides you with the opportunity to do some interesting increases and decreases as well as a little bit of lace. About the only tricky bit I faced in this project was getting the number of lace intervals right for the neckline that I wanted. 18 turned out to be the magic number for me when combined with Audrey done in the "small" size. I love the fit of this top and Calmer is one of those yarns that is a pleasure to wear near the skin. |
