Grass is Green and Glorious!
While the drought of South Texas continues, I still see green grass, if only in my stash...
Pattern: Insouciant
Yarn: Plymouth Grass in 9063
This was a super simple pattern that knit up quickly, when I actually worked on it.
It is a little big, but my gauge was spot on. My mistake was measuring my favorite t-shirt and assuming I wanted this to fit exactly the same. It does, but the knitted fabric is slightly heavier, so it grows a bit with wearing. Also, the pattern was designed for a smallish individual, so the neck line is rather wide and large in my size. The plan is to rip out the neck edging, pick up fewer stitches with a pair of smaller needles, and redo; however, I freely admit, I have already worn this!
Love the top!
Love the yarn!
I will be knitting this one again in Habu Tsumgi silk (color #11), although I will be going down a needle size for the entire project:
In other news, a new pattern will be released to the public on July 1st! Can you tell what it is?
