Bell shaped sweater with a pleats

 As I said in the previous post, I knitted a new sweater with three large folds. It looks much better now because this way the bell effect I originally wanted is much nicer. This is the ICE yarn, mohair + Tencel I've been looking for for a long time. Tencel gives a wonderful softness to the knit and comfort when worn. Black is hard to show in photos but it is really beautiful and deep black. I don’t like when black has a brown tone or reddish. Black must be absolutely black, like night. So, I added a few details at the top, small tulle bows and a satin ribbon to tie to give this piece my personal touch. I think it’s perfect now and deserves to be on display at my Etsy shop.

a little madness

 The crocheted top I made a long time ago suddenly seemed boring to me so I decided to change something and revive it a bit.

 A little color, a little madness and here's what came out in the end. Be different!

And it was like this -

More horizontal pleats !

 I recently made this sleeveless sweater but I scalded it. I was not happy with the width of the fold because I want to make only three pleats but one wider. That idea is ongoing, the outcome will follow soon. 👍And yes, there will be no white part around the neck. I think everything will be black. We'll see!

How to knit Horizontal pleats ? Easy!

 

  

I knitted this sweater / top from the bottom up with two interesting stitches. The lower part is knitted with round needles and Fisherman rib stitch. The upper part is also knitted with round needles. I used horizontal pleats stitch there. There is a link- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WvDh8A69bg&ab_channel=JoannesWeb

 

Like a snowflake!

 Like a snowflake! White, soft, delicate as a snowflake. Emphasized waist line and tulle bows on the sleeves, this is my new sweater a pleasant transition from winter to spring.

Like my other works, you can find this sweater / top in my Etsy shop. Welcome!

The solution!

 Here it is, it's over!

 The white and black sweater with braids is finally over. I opted for simple black and white sleeves since the whole front is in braids. On the back at waist height are 4 braids that make a nicer back line. Knitting took a bit longer because of the front, which required a little more effort. The part on the shoulders is in different colors and I used crochet to make it a little harder. 

I hope you like it. 😘

Braids

 I started knitting these braids just because my braids looked wonderful in that yarn. Now I'm figuring out what to do next, sleeves and stuff. The solution in the next post!

The last day

 Looks like this was the last nice and sunny day. winter is coming whether we like it or not but that doesn’t mean we can’t keep the summer colors on our warm clothes. Vivid colors improve the mood and we all really need that now.
