Sweaters: October 2004 Archives

Yes, I know about the drawbacks of big yarn without much twist (both from a fashion and maintenance perspective). But I really really really want to make this in the Marble colorway (or perhaps I should say colourway, since it's from Colinette). I should probably know better (this sweater certainly wouldn't be popular with Stacy and Clinton or Trinny and Susannah), but I love the tunic shaping and the neckline.

I have never really been drawn to Point 5, but ever since first seeing Shimmer 5 on Marie's Blog, I have to admit I've started stalking the Internet for the stuff.

Yarn stalker. Yep, that's me.

You can see the lovely Shimmer 5 colorways here

And the other designs in from the Shimmer 5 pattern book here.

(Actually, Colinette seems to have had a small explosion of new pattern books recently... you can find some of them here)
