Knitted lightweight jacket

in NeedleWorkMonday5 years ago

Today is Monday and I greet all our girls-needlewomen !!!! 🌹🌹🌹
I want to show you one more jacket that I knitted for a year of quarantine.

I had an old yellow short hooded sweater that was already completely out of shape. I decided to unravel it into threads. I also had balls of white and green yarn (very little green). So I got the idea to combine them in one piece.

I'm happy with what I did. Very comfortably! Our temperature dropped: today it was 24 degrees Celsius. So I could wear this jacket for you.

The sleeves are a little long, but that doesn't bother me.

To decorate the jacket a little, I decided to sew on a little different beads. Just a little bit on the front neckline:

A few more beads on the yellow stripes on the chest:

I also added some colorful beads to the sleeves. It turned out very gentle and not at all striking:

I am very pleased with this jacket. I managed to wear it very rarely, since this whole year we have been working from home due to quarantine.

I am sure you have had a very productive week and I hope you are doing well.

I love the colors and texture of the knitting. The added beads really look good on the sweater. Nice work @tali72 :)

thank you, my dear!!!!!

This is looks like 5gg or 7gg cardigan, do you feel it is light weight ?

last year I knitted two sweaters. the first jacket is heavy because the yarn is thick. and this second compared to the first one is easy 🙂

Wow!!! How do you manage to make something so lovely only with scrap yarn? I am sure if I would try this I’ll end with two different looking sleeves and perhaps not enough yarn to complete the jacket :-DDD You did so well to combine colors and the tiny pearls pick up on this color scheme perfectly - in my eyes the pearls give the jacket a light/ cheery vibe.

thank you so much my dear !!! I knitted with knitting needles from the remains of yarn, which were not a whole ball, but pieces. it was terrible! 😰 I will never do it again. I know you do amazing things and you are not afraid to experiment. I need to learn from you! 😍🌹

Отличная работа, очень красиво получилось. Цвета просто радуют глаз, замечательно, автор умница и мастерица с отменным вкусом.

Засмущал совсем 😊 😉
