I've just finished the pattern for the Rib & Braid Jumper, as I've decided to call the woman's version of my Sherwood child's pullover-- whew! Assembling those charts in Adobe Illustrator took longer than I care to admit, but I like the way they look much better than if I had used Stitch & Motif Maker, like I did for the original Sherwood charts. And of course the charts will end up being in easy-to-use pdf format, UNLIKE the charts from Knitty (and that's all I have to say on that subject....).
AND I decided to include lots of possibilities for customizing this pattern: thus there will be instructions for four different lengths, including vest length (upper hip); tunic; jumper/short dress (as pictured); and longer (above the knee) jumper/dress. Instructions will also be included for optional set-in full-length sleeves (the Sherwood sleeves were modified drop sleeves).
Anyhoo, I've sent it all off to the tech editor-- hooray!
Worked in the round from the top down in an all-over cabled rib with eyelets, the Lace Cable Rib Pullover is intriguingly lacy, yet not too racy (no camisole needed!), and the cabled ribs give it a figure-flattering fit without added waist shaping. See more patterns
