That is so pretty. Wouldn't suit me as I am too senior and these days knitting is too hard on my thumbs. Crocheting is much easier. I recently found your blog when I was interested to discover you were in Perth. I lived there until a few years ago when my husband and I retired and moved south. Kids are all in Perth. You are an inspiration with your knitting.
348 sts?? OMG - I'm so dizzy. :) Your camisole truly is beautiful. Good job!!
wow that's lovely! i can totally see myself making that both as a summery top AND as a vest over a little white blouse or tissue thin tee! thanks for the inspiration!
Finally I got to the blog. I actually had to google ziaperamore and then link over from there. It worked, and thanks for all the help in finding it.
Can't wait to try this after the holidays
