Oldies but Goldies – It’s Time to Say Goodbye!

THIS PATTERN IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE

As you may know, I strive for perfection in both my knitting and pattern writing.

When I started 11 years ago, my pattern writing skills weren’t as developed as they are today. While these older patterns aren’t bad, they no longer meet my current standards and many are not size-inclusive.

To make this farewell a bit easier, I’m offering a 50% discount on Ravelry, which will apply automatically at checkout.

If you’re interested in any of these patterns, act quickly! You can find all the “Oldies” in the “Time to Retire“ bundle.

These patterns will be removed in a few days!

Hourglass is a lightweight cardigan with a feminine touch.
The perfect partner for a feminine dress - but it goes very well with jeans as well.
The stockinette part is interrupted by an easy to knit lace pattern on the front bands and in the back centre.
The lace pattern in the back features the form of an hourglass and really cuts a fine figure.
The body is worked sideways in one piece, shaping is done by short rows (technique explained). The sleeves are worked in the round.
Alternatives for more width at waist and/or hips.
As you are working from section to section, it will never be boring and flies off the needles …

So leicht und angenehm zu tragen!
Passt überall dazu, … zu Jeans genauso gut wie zum Kleid …
Feminine Jacke mit einem einfach zu strickendem Loch-Muster an der vorderen Blende und im Rücken.
Das Muster in Form einer Sanduhr am Rücken und die leichte Taillierung machen eine gute Figur und unterstreichen die weibliche Linie.
Die Jacke wird in einem Stück quer gestrickt. Es müssen nur die Schultern zusammengenäht werden. Die Ärmel werden in runden mit verkürzten Reihen gearbeitet.

Material
