FO no. 9 2005, baby kimono
In progress:
A quite quick and delightful knit, here we are, finished and a little steam-blocked:
The kimono is knitted in one piece. When I had knitted it all up I discovered that the sleeves were rather short. So I had two options; rip almost 1/3 of the whole kimono or work out some other way to add a bit of length. I went for a bit of length - picked up and knitted 4 cm moss stitch. Not perfect - as I think the original design with the simple sleeves is just the right thing - but it saved me a lot of work...
