FO #2

Dance, anyone?  This pattern is called "Pas de Valse."
I was trying to knit two projects in parallel universes... with the same deadlines, so I kept going back and forth.  The other one was finished 2 days ago, and now this one (which needed 1/3 of a sleeve and ends woven in) was right on its tail...
My chocolate wonder:
In all of its darkness, it was a bit difficult to photograph.
The edge is crocheted to ruffle just a bit.
And look who it fits?

The only seam to be sewn (kitchener) is at the center back of the collar.

Pattern:  Pas de Valse by Marnie MacLean from twist collective Fall 2009  
Yarn:  Silky Wool by Elsebeth Lavold DK / 8 ply 45% Wool, 35% Silk, 20% Nylon 50g=192 yards (used 6.6 skeins)

  1. Beautiful!! I'll wear my Farmer's Market Cardi and we'll look like twins. The color looks very close!

  2. Very nice. It's always a good thing when a finished project fits and looks good.
