#Handmade - Coachella Top

Free pattern on Ravelry Looks much better on me than on No-Boob Emma ;-)

Notes

CO 202st with 2.5mm needles….what a pain….!
:-)
I hope I don’t have a twist,…

Didn’t have a twist, but managed to get one in after the arms when joining everything.
I caught it in the third row, never knit stuff like this when tired.
I left it though and just knit straight over.
There’s a little bump, but I can live with that ;-)
That’s just me :P

I did up the number of st to 220, I hope it all works out. Trying it on with the cable needles is for some reason a pain itb this time.

At the next shaping part I reduced the st to 210.

And following the pattern from there.
I should have added another Inch, going on 23” instead 22” before knitting the last 6 rows.

The strap in the back could have been a bit longer too.

That’s what you get when you don’t do a gauge and just go ‘pi thumb’ ;-)

Funny, this yarn knits much more even in stockinette when knitting through the back loop.

Looks much better in real Life than here :) Odd angle, sigh!

#Handmade - Fitted Tank Top

From Handmade

Notes

First off: I love the yarn and the feel of it.
I love the Tank Top too.
It just doesn’t fit me.
I’ll just have to make another one in the biggest option available and longer, since the Acrylic yarn doesn’t hang itself out ( Not sure what the correct term in English is).

I will def. give this a second try and hopefully can give this Top a new home with one of my (skinnier) friends :-)

I find the pattern description a bit confusing at some parts, but that is probably just me.
I personally also don’t like the decrease at the armpits. I tried various decrease methods to avoid the little ‘triangles’ sticking out.

Checking out the finished projects, I am starting to think, that ribbed patterns are maybe not going well for people with bigger Boobs.
Dangit, I love this Top!
:-)
