Cable Top




I knitted this several years ago and it still holds the same sheen as it did when I first knitted it. It washes really well and I still love to wear it. It has been one of the hand knitted garments I have made, that everyone thinks was shop bought. Sure it's all down to the yarn used.

It was knitted using a silk mix yarn which was really soft. Made a nice change to work a cable pattern.

Hi! That's a beautiful top! I've tried several times to knit but have failed miserably!! Thanks for the suggestions for the cross stitches - I hadn't thought of framing them in pairs. I would have room to hang a single frame (with the four in it)... I'll have to go pick a frame and get it done! Thanks again!
