Sie beschrieb den "Snow drop cardigan" aus der Vogue Knitting Ausgabe vom letzten Herbst 08.Design von James Coviello. Ich verliebte mich sofort und entschloss mich, mal wieder ein Projekt auf der Strickmaschine zu starten. Nach langen Suchen entdeckte ich doch noch eine Ausgabe, die ich mir aus England zuschicken liess.Original wurde die Jacke aus Alpaca/Seide gestrickt. Ich entschied mich jedoch für die Merino/Seta von Lang Yarns.
Couple a weeks ago knitlitkate wrote in her blog about this nice cardigan. It is a pattern from the Vogue Knitting fall issue 08, design by James Coviello. I fell in love with it immediately and decided to start a new project on my knitting machine. Searching everywhere for a copy of this Vogue Knitting issue, I finally found it in england and let it send to me. Originally the cardigan is knitted with alpaca/silk, but I decided to use the nice merino/silk from Lang Yarns.

I translated the pattern into the Design- a- Knit program. So I didn't have to do all the math. Unfortunately the program is not running on the Mac yet. But with my mouse I kicked row after row, till all the pieces where done. Machine knitting is still real crafting by hand.


Just before finishing the cardigan. Edging and color are still missing. It was a tricky thing to make, but I think it is going to be nice. I will show the finished piece soon---I hope.
this is GORGEOUS! thank you for the link : )
