cosy (me)

 

Outro casaco tricotado com um dos meus fios preferidos (novamente madelinetosh DK). Este modelo foi fácil e super rápido de tricotar (acabado em cerca de um mês), e fiquei agora com vontade de tricotar a versão criança para a S.

Another cardigan in one of my favorite  yarns (madelinetosh DK again). This pattern was easy and super quick to knit (finished in about a month), and I'm now planning to knit the child version for S.

Modelo / Pattern: cosy (me), by  Nadia Crétin-Léchenne

Agulhas / Needles: 4 mmm

Tamanho / Size: S with smaller gauge

Changes made were very few: 

• made an extra button hole
• picked up 60 stitches on each armhole (because I used smaller needles), basically 3 out of every 4 rows

Final measurements after blocking were more like the XS size (32” chest)

pomme de pin

Um casaco que foi amor à primeira vista assim que o padrão foi publicado. E escolhi fazer em amarelo mostarda, uma cor de que cada vez gosto mais, principalmente nestes dias de inverno frios e chuvosos.

Optei por alterar a gola do padrão original, que apesar de ser bastante interessante achei que iria ser pouco prática.

 

A cardigan that was love at first sight as soon as the pattern was released. And I chose to knit a mustard yellow version, a color that has quickly become a favorite, especially during these cold and rainy winter days.

I changed the collar from the original pattern which despite being quite interesting wouldn't be so practical to wear.

Mathilde #1

Uma nova blusa feita antes do Natal, mas que só consegui fotografar agora. O padrão é o Mathilde, da Tilly and the Buttons, e gostei tanto que já tenho planos para uma nova versão. 

Adoro: as pregas pequenas à frente e os botões atrás. 

O que alterei: mangas compridas em vez de 3/4.

A new blouse that I made before Christmas but only had the time to photograph now. The pattern is Mathilde, from Tilly and the Buttons, and I like it so much I already have plans for another version.

What I loved: the front pleats and the buttons on the back

What I changed: long sleeves instead of 3/4
