Having admired this pattern for a long time, I decided it was time to try it out. (In DB Cash DK, somewhat less than 1 skein)I really enjoyed knitting it, the pattern is a delight, very clear, simple and quick. No wonder there are 1095 of them on Ravelry. And very shortly there will be one more - 1096 and counting.
Here we are rehearsing the button placement. On the advice of the designer, I'm gonna line up the bottom of the button band with the lower edge of Tudura for maximum style and effect, (thanks Cheryl).

.Wow, the Winter Knitty is up. Already.And it's great. Lots of interesting things here that I like. Mostly the accessories (given that I'm not exactly a waif). This and the previous Knitty issue had more that appealed to me than the earlier ones for a long time. No judgements, just sayin'.I'm definitely making this for Little Mouse, this and this for myself and this for pretty much everybody else. There may be other neckwarmer things around, but nothing approaching Tudura for sheer dash and simplicity.Congratulations Cheryl, it's genius. I can't wait to get started! Plus those are very chic and sassy pics.Edited To Add: Congratulations also to Carol for Doddy in the same issue. Yay Irish Knitters!.
