I wrote this pattern earlier in the year. It’s perfect for large yarns, and a quick knit if you understand cables! Seeing as my current finances (hello University in America) are dire, I’d appreciate any interest this receives!
((If you can’t afford it for this price, please let me know. I’ll work with you.))
Knitting day.
Separated my sections. I have 18 stitches, 18 stitches, 3 stitches and 25 stitches. This is working from the centre to the outside.
Starting with 64 stitches and two rows of knit stitch. This is the underwire area.
The Shelley Bra Pattern (linked through the photo) looks simple and with lots of support. Problem? I’m not a sewer, I’m a yarnworker. I knit and crochet.
Thus, It’s time for some pattern-making.
As you can see, I’ve already started figuring out how I intend to start this. The project is also on Ravelry, and I’ll be updating with my progress as I go. I feel like it’s about time I was able to just knit myself a bra.
I think only one person follows me so this may seem like a silly post to have, but I wanted to warn everyone I am starting a knitting project, and I intend to blog the process. The tag will be #shelleybra: it’s a bra, in case you haven’t guessed. Feel free to block the tag if you need to.
I knit too and just learned to crochet. That’s a happy activity for me too, as I’ve been crocheting a blanket while watching Granada Holmes! 🙂
Crocheting is really satisfying because it goes so quickly. In the meanwhile knitting takes me much longer but I like the stitch coverage (my crocheting always has those gaps between the stitches, because I loathe tight crocheting). I tend to yarnwork while watching things too! It keeps my hands busy.
Finished three awful colours of yarn. Occasionally it’s nice to have yarn that I just want to get rid of because it means I don’t feel at all badly about trying new things and ending up with something horrid.
