Alpine Roses

St. Moritz is looking a lot more like a jumper now. One sleeve is finished and the back and front have only got 16 rows left. I am showing the back here, the front looks funny with the steeking stitches for the neckline and the half finished Alpine Rose. The bottom half will be Swiss darned on. I may have knitted the bulk of this by now but there is going to be a lot of finishing. So far all the ends are still dangling, not to mention the cutting.
So far I have greatly enjoyed knitting this. I can't believe how fast it has gone and how much fun I had. It is not a knit to take along though.


For that I have little Smockie here.
The back is done. Now the same again for the front.
I like knitting with the Rowan Purelife yarn even if it keeps splitting.
The piece feels soft and light. I hope Rowan will bring out a pattern book for small children with this yarn. Or I should start making my own pattern(s).
I have enough inspiration.
