'Jewels of the Sea' worked to showcase both my latest pattern Anyah, this time worked for summer wear, that Julia preferred wearing sleeveless, along with Jessica's pick ~ a jaunty short-sleeved sweater, taken from my 2011 summer collection and paired with her favorite style of hat, a trendy Newsboy Cap.

Knitting Pattern Note:
 Jessica's sweater Meridian, is currently in the process of being updated with new pictures to follow.

Both outfits were inspired by the stunning colors found in * sea glass

Presenting, 'Adrift' . . a nautical inspired cardigan pattern

Adrift

a nautical cardigan pattern for dolls

by Debonair Designs

 

   I have just released my new pattern, 'Adrift'.

This nautical inspired cardigan pattern features a chevron lace stitch that reminds me of the gently ripples of a flowing tide and waves cresting upon a sandy shoreline. The stitch in turn creates a flattering scalloped edge.

Nautical fashion is still considered today as timeless symbols of escape to distant shores and 'Adrift' is no exception, a perfect lightweight cardigan to go over your doll's favorite tee shirt, yet warm enough for those spring/summer sea breezes. 

Designer's Note: Worked flat ~ my preferred knitting technique using my bamboo straights.

Construction: Worked from the bottom up in one piece to armholes, including button bands, then each section is worked individually.

Experience Level: Advance beginner - Intermediate
