This is the ‘Too Fucking Cold’ Scarf, lol, and when you look at it closely you’ll see why. Made to look like just random fair isle pattern throughout when looking at it long-ways. But as soon as you see it on it’s side the words start to form.

Fall fashion knit –Dagmar sweater, cable knit sweater with a twist.
You have seen it everywhere – the fisherman’s sweater with fanciful cable knits. I was going to make one for this fall, but wondered what if I moved the cable patterns across the bodice, instead of the traditional straight-up cables? It turned out that with a simple trick in the pattern, it’s actually not that hard. The cables then follow the raglan sleeve decreases, to form a natural curve around the body – lengthwise.
I also knitted a high-low hem – a curved hem that is shorter at front, to accentuate the cable curves. Knitting short rows may sound intimidating – but it’s not at all difficult using a wrap-and-turn technique, which I explain in the pattern.
For background, I used a textured pattern of garter/rib stitches as a nice contrast of the cable patterns. Simple, yet it works surprisingly well!
Put on this cozy, warm, and chic sweater, super-slim jeans, ankle boots and a parka, and I’m ready for fall! 🙂
My Dagmar sweater pattern is now for download here.
I am in LOVE with this.
PROJECT #020: MOROCCAN GARDEN | FREE CROCHET PATTERN
a free pattern via the blog projectarian. Such fab colour combinations.
Today’s request is brought to you by @foxish49. It’s for complex shawls. All for these run a seven or higher on the Ravelry rating scale, so they are not intended for beginners. However, the only way to build your skills is to try new things.
The 3rd version of the mindless cowl. At this point the pattern might end up being named that. I love this sparkly neon pink so much but it will not photograph true to its glorious, gaudy color.
First time for me to knit a sweater with my own pattern on it. Trying to make it look 3D…
Wow, this looks amazing! It totally looks 3D, nice work!
The cube thing is such a spiffy idea!
It looks awesomely 3D
