Remotely related to Cobblestone
I have a new favorite cardigan. I love it to pieces (hope not) and can hardly part with it when I go to bed at night.
details:
pattern: very modified version of Cobblestone pullover from IK fall 07. I used garter st. all over exept from the edgings where I made one repeat of the Annefødder (birdsfeet) pattern:
yarn: Navia 2 ply. 350 meters pr. 50 grams. The mixture of loosely spun faroese, shetland- and australian wool makes up for an extremely light and airy yarn. I used less than 4 skeins so the whole cardi is lighter than 200 grams! F-l-u-f-f!
needles: 3,5 mm circular. body knitted back and forth, sleeves in the round. Joined at yoke and further back and forth. no seams! just some under-arm grafting..
I added a simple line of half treble crochet stitches along the front edges for definition and firmness.
I omitted the shortrow shaping in the yoke - for the sake of simplicity - both in the knitting and in the appearance. For the sweater, however, I would absolutely have stuck to the original shortrows because they make the sweater very handsome and well fitted around the shoulders and neck.
Really. That fluff is unbelievable. I want me a sheep.

Wow! That is so genious - I love it! It looks so classic and feminine. I have been looking for the perfect cardigan pattern and I just might have to try it out myself too. I love that pearl grey colour - gorgeous. | |

Har du brukt cobblestoneoppskriften? Hvilket garn har du brukt? Jeg vil prøve meg på en genser til mannen min, men må nok oversette oppskriften først. Den ser så komplisert ut, to sider og greier, og det kan jeg ikke forstå at skal være nødvendig. Jeg har da strikket massevis at rundhaldede gensere tidligere.
Jakka de er supersøt. | |

Vakkert, Karen! Jeg liker fargen og snittet, knappene! ALT! Har tenkt på herrevarianten til en som ikke får for mange strikkegensere!
Voksen variant av nøstebarnstil dette! | |

Meget, meget smuk - jeg kan godt forstå du er flyttet ind i den. Jeg er også ved at få øjnene op for Navia garnet - rustikt og lækkert!

Hvor er den dog bare fantastisk smuk i al sin enkelhed, Karen, jeg kan godt forstå, at du elsker den!
Jeg har lige strikket Cobblestone til min mand, den er nu også rigtig klædelig.
Men din feminine udgave her, sådan en ville jeg nu også gerne ha'.
Måske skulle du lave et lille mønster og sætte det til salg, på Ravelry måske... | |

Den er bare så SMUK! Jeg har slet ikke fået tjekket om jeg selv er i besidelse af det nummer af IK, jeg håber det, så har jeg LIGE garnet til (forhåbentligt) en lignende variant.
Flot-flot-flot!
mange hilsner fra Vivian / DK | |
