Progress on the Retro Cardi for Grown Girls

I have been working on the Retro Cardi for Grown Girls. I am done with the left front, and the back. Tonight will be the right front, and then on to the sleeves.

I love this pattern knit in the alpaca. The soft halo gives such subtlety to the pattern.

Tonight I am working on the pattern for the Retro Cardi for Girls. The children will be in bed, Mr. SockPixie will be working on projects of his own, it will be quiet and I do need quiet when I edit and size patterns!

The Retro Cardi for Grown Girls

While I am working on the edits to the Retro Cardi for Girls pattern, I have already started work on the Retro Cardi for Grown Girls. By that, I mean girls like you and me!

The yarn is Berroco Ultra Alpaca, and the fabric will be a lovely retro 1950's circle skirt.

For now it's back to knitting, as the skirt and the Retro Cardi for Grown Girls have to be ready before March 30, when Miss SockPixie leaves for France!
