Blue Tunic



The pattern is from Sabrina spezial Herbstmaschen 2011, the yarn I found to my astonishment at Aldi, I have to admit I wouldn't have expected them to sell some so nice.

The knitting pattern annoyed me, and I’m a bit annoyed at myself for starting to knit trustingly. They missed the chance to have the braid pattern go around the hips uninterrupted, which I fixed, and to make the side seams invisible, which I alas realized too late and then I was too lazy to unravel all the work I had already done. That is also the reason why on mine the braids are swapped around in difference to the pattern, at least that way the seams aren’t quite so obvious.

I also changed the neckline, showing as much skin as the pattern wanted is too cold for me in winter. ;-)
