Abuelita




I took a hiatus from both cardigans and I worked on the Aubelita pattern by Meghan Fernades.  It is available in Pom Pom Quarterly Issue 2, Autumn 2012.  The pattern recommended Lace weight, 2 ply.  I used "I knit or Dye Ziggy Stardust, colour Anna, available from "I knit London".I only had 1 skein and I used 2 skeins of Debbie Bliss, Luxury sock yarn, coachella (1).  The pattern was worked from the top down to the bottom, You worked the neck line, then the bodice.  As I was making this pattern for my daughter, Ayodele, I decided to make it longer to the hips.  I would definitely make this again, however I would use 1 colour for the whole of the neck line and the whole of the bodice and use edging of a different colour for the armhole and the bottom of the bodice.
