One of my favourite autumn\/spring outfits is a knitted tank top over a long-sleeved t-shirt. I used to have a grey cabled tank top but it gradually got more and more felted until it was tight across my shoulders so I have sadly parted with it and knitted myself this nice new red one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pattern is the Locus Vest<\/a> by Katya Frankel and I knitted it in Sirdar Country Style DK yarn, which I like because it’s warm and quite woolly but not TOO woolly (pure wool makes me itch, even through a t-shirt). The lace panel runs up the front and back and I love how it looks but it did mean I had to pay attention on every row, which means I wasn’t in the mood for this every day, and consequently it took over a year to finish. But I’m very glad to have it now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My next knitting project is a stripy tank top knit using the leftover yarn from my Eastern Jewels blanket<\/a>. This was initially moving faster due to being mainly stocking stitch, and also stripes always knit up faster; but recently I’ve been forgetting about it and leaving it to one side while I do other things. Hopefully writing this post will remind me to pick it up again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
