Between the Lines fingerless gloves pattern

These gloves feature simple vertical stripes with a twist: easy colourwork and a few cable crossings on thumb and at the back of the hand. Thumb gusset shaping ensures a good fit and knitting with two yarns makes the gloves wonderfully warm.

The fingerless gloves fit an average woman's hand and are approximately 19 cm (7.5'') long. Only 25 g (100 yds) of fingering weight yarn in each colour is required.

The pattern is available on Ravelry and on my pattern page.










The sample gloves are knitted with Garnstudio DROPS BabyAlpaca Silk, shades No. 5670 (brown) and No. 7820 (green).

Half a day sweater

Winter meets spring - woollen turtle neck sweater with snowdrops, completed in just a few hours. The lower body part and neck are worked in the round, sleeves are knitted flat and sewn on.




The sweater is in medium ladies' size in 1:12 scale: the body part measures 5 cm in height and 4 cm in width. It is knitted using lace weight merino wool (1400 meters per 100 g) and needles 1.5 mm (US size 000 apparently and not -1 as I first thought). Knitting tension is 60 stitches and 70 rows to 10 cm.




Here is the colour chart for snowdrops and grass, would probably pass for crocuses and cyclamens just as well.
