Five Easy Pieces
The Back. Simple stockinette stitch, lovely fabric, softly textured, the back is ready for its part in holding together the other pieces.
The Sleeve, times two. Simple lace, ready to add a bit of panache, and elegant style, to the sweater.
The Front. This is the piece by which all others will be judged. It is rich in color and texture like the others, but it is the framework for the special piece, the piece that sets off the whole garment, the Inset.
The Inset. Made of lace and cables, full of whimsy and charm. This pieces is the icing on this cake of Lacy Waves.
Sew them all together and you have...
More to come.
Psssst...tomorrow is Judy’s birthday. Have a grand day, Judy!
BEautiful, especially the inset piece. You are such a tease.

Love that blue! I don't recognize it, I'm sure because I'm a complete doofus, but I too await the unveiling of the gestalt.

I love knitting a sweater when each piece is different!

Beautiful pieces! I, however, have been quite tempted by your Larger Than Life Bag. I have even been checking out the Louet Sport - great colors. I'm not sure how much longer I can hold out. :)

The sweater parts are yearning to be assembled and worn. Hurry, hurry!
I was thinking I should talk to DH about putting in a nice patch of smooth stones for me to photograph things on, then realized that your stones are always dry, and mine would usually be wet, and the look would be quite different. Your photos always look SOOO professional!!
