this is my cupcake top. but i have to give it away.

 

 

 

Wow!! It looks great!! Too bad it doesn't fit!! Next time hopefully it will!!

iamnichole, your top is soo pretty! great job! is that one row double crochet, one row single crochet? the scallop border really adds a feminine touch. I think you should make it in black, too!

I have just finished the armhole decreases for my sleeveless top. It was way easier *and* faster than I imagined! I'm having fun crocheting this top.

Everyone wearables are lookin' great.

 

I'm still working on the Chrysanthemum Shawl but I'm about 2/3 of the way done. I started on Suzanne from Cool Crochet. I've made some adjustments in the size which I hope will work out in the end. The pattern size jumps from 40" chest to 46" chest and 46" is too be but 40" is too small. So I've added one xtra pattern repeat in the front and back pieces. I like how it's coming out. The scariest part will be putting in the zipper when it's all done.

sammimag, you are adventurous!! that "Suzanne" sweater looks really challenging. are you using the same yarn as in the book? how easy is the stitch pattern?

[sammimag]

The pattern is really easy to follow. It's a tr crossed stitch. I'm using Cascade Heathers yarn which worked on gauge just fine despite that the yarn recommended is supposed to be a bulkier yarn. The pics you see really don't do the color justice. It's a subtle lavender color.

The front and back pieces so far.

 

Here you can see the front close up. The piece on top is considered the wrong side of the fabric and the piece under it is considered the right side. I'm think I like the wrong side better.

[Adri]

very pretty colour and stitching. your pieces look lighter than the original which appears a bit weighted down and bulky.
