Speaking of Clara's fabulous knitting, here's the silk-edged cotton camisole from Vintage Knits that was her back and forth to class project this school year. It's so dense and textural--very nice!
We are both in a knitting mood, and we did some yarn shopping this weekend, mostly vivid cotton for a year's worth of knitting. Clara is plowing through her projects.
I'm thinking about how fun it will be when I actually knit, a different day.
That is just about the prettiest knitted project I think I have ever seen!
ReplyDeleteWow! Please pass on to Clara that her work is truly beautiful. I have yet to knit a garment, and this makes me want to try. Thank you for sharing! blessings!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully knitted! Perhaps you and Clara should explore ravelry.com - lots of knitting, knitters, and some free patterns.

ReplyDeleteClara has been given a gift.
ReplyDeleteBut I am sure she already knows that. :)
If I ever get too big for my knitting (though not 'knitted'!) britches, I'll think of Clara. She's half my age but worlds ahead in the knitting department. Go Clara!
ReplyDeleteWould Clara be willing to share the pattern (or how to buy it) with us? Such a beautiful piece makes me want one too!
ReplyDeleteThe pattern is from Sarah Dallas' book Vintage Knits--one of our favorites!
ReplyDeleteI have that same knitting book! I recognized that pattern right away. There are so many lovely things in it. *One* of these days I am going to knit the silk camisole...
ReplyDeleteClara did a superb job!
