Mosaic

Amy Christoffers has a new pattern coming tomorrow. Here is the link to the Paulie Cardigan on Ravelry.

The cardigan is worked in an allover mosaic stitch. The fronts back and sleeves feature a motif based on a traditional quilt block. The cardigan is named after my Grandma Paulie who was a quilter and the inspiration for this pattern. 

The mosaic knitting technique uses only 1 yarn in each row with slipped stitches to create the pattern. You alternate 2 MC rows with 2 CC rows throughout. The motif pattern is charted, there are three versions of the chart, one for sizes 1 & 2, one for sizes 3, 4, 5 & 6 and one for sizes 7 & 8. 

The Sleeves are worked in the round from the bottom up. The Body is worked in one piece from the bottom up. The Body and sleeves are joined at the underarm and the yoke is worked seamlessly with V-neck and raglan shaping.

I knit Amy’s Pressed Flowers and her pattern was very well written.

My sweater is growing. I hope to get another pattern repeat finished tonight.

I was looking for pictures of Pressed Flowers and came across these pictures of baby Jackson.

He was so little.
