Knitting from the Top | Barbara G. Walker

I created this design based on Barbara Walker‘s top-down technique. I‘m heading for Whitehorse this morning and it‘s currently 4 C there, so I am looking forward to wearing my new sweater! 🐑#knittersofLitsy

Cathythoughts Oh I‘d love some cold weather. You‘ll be cosy out in that lovely jumper .. I‘m reading Raven Black set in Shetland at the mo. So I‘m thinking a lot of Fair Isle jumpers ... my mother was a champion knitter .. I never took it up ...( except for the simple teddy bear ) I remember the knitting rhymes she taught me .... AND , so I always love to see your knitting posts ♥️ (edited) 5y

Megabooks That is gorgeous!! 5y
Crazeedi You are very talented!! 5y
Lindy @Cathythoughts I want to know the knitting rhymes! I‘m going to go looking online. Thanks also for mentioning a book set in Shetland; I‘m going to investigate that too. 🐑😊 5y
Lindy @Samplergal Thanks! It‘s not a complicated pattern, as you can see. (Just a lot of mathematical calculations.) I wanted to use some Pingouin mohair yarn that I‘ve had in the cupboard since the 90s. Unfortunately, in icy colours that no longer appeal, so my solution was to mellow them by plying with a lopi-style wool. 5y
Cathythoughts I can hardly remember... for the plain stitch it was something like ... “ In through the bunny hole , all around the top , out through the bunny hole & off you hop ... “ 😊. And the book ( first in the Series 👍🏻) 5y
LeahBergen It‘s lovely! 5y
Lindy @LeahBergen Thanks! I thought of you when my plane stopped in Calgary earlier today, on the way to Whitehorse. 5y

Knitted using the recipe in the tagged book, this rainbow cardi will brighten up this rainy, rainy week! I designed this one myself and, with the tendonitis battle, it took me seven months to knit. I'm a little in love. Can you tell?
