My mom had this yarn in her stash for goodness knows how long, she mentioned she initially got it because she wanted to knit a tee with it. I got her a pattern from Ravelry to fit her preferred style (flat knitting) but she had some trouble with the lace pattern (abbreviations like k2tog and ssk are new to her, at least in name lol). I told her no worries mom, I’ll knit it for you!

This is actually the second piece, I only have to knit the top lace pattern and it’ll be ready for blocking and sewing together, and just at the beginning of summer, yay (southern hemisphere here).

Pattern: Angel Tee by Rina Leyton (available in English and Spanish) Yarn: Unknown viscose yarn, sport weight

    Ok I tried to reply to this from Mastodon because lemm.ee is misbehaving, but apparently that didn’t work either so now I’m copy pasting here. What I’m saying is, don’t be surprised if this comment shows up multiple times from multiple sources in future. Yay federation! 😅

    Looks like you two have similar tastes in yarn colours! Also love that you’ve so quickly become such a degenerate you’re even doing other people’s projects for them 😉

    This is such a pretty pattern! Surprised to see so few projects for it on Ravelry, and especially surprised to see nobody’s made it goth. Maybe I need to be the change… 🤔

      Do it!

      Maybe because it’s from a local (to me) designer and the Ravelry community around here is pretty much non existant is the reason there are few projects.

          Just a heads up, this pattern is being updated in 01/20 with a new version for round knitting (which has become my favorite way of knitting), there’s also gonna be a KAL going on for the re-release, so I’ll probably jump in and knit a ee one for myself :)

            Ooh that’s excellent news thanks for the update!, Knitting flat always feels like a chore to me these days. My yarn budget right now is basically zero, so no KAL for me*, but it could make for a nice project in spring maybe.

            *also I hate KALs they’re stressful for slow knitters like me 😅
