It was off the needles a few days ago but searching for just the right buttons took a little while. The choice came down to two and the saleswoman said these were more like a boutique button than the other ones. I must also add that these were the ones R found...my choice didn't rate the 'boutique' label.
I'm very pleased with my Peasy, I think it's my nicest knit yet. Thanks to Heidi Kirrmaier for the wonderful pattern!
It looks lovely, Darlene!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting, Darlene...so gorgeous and the buttons are perfect. You ought to be pleased because you did a wonderful job:)
ReplyDeleteCornflower, Thank you, Karen!
ReplyDeleteJoAnn, I am very lucky...but something tells me the guys at work won't hear about this shopping trip!
Book Psmith, Thank you so much for the compliment...keep knitting, Stacy, and you'll be turning out cardie's too!
Beautiful! When I saw the title I thought Peasy was an abbreviation of Easy Peasy, but now Isee how intricate the knitting is it is anything but!
ReplyDeleteThat is lovely! It's a gorgeous colour and I like the wee lacy bits at the top. Perfect buttons, too! (Though I'm sure your choice were nice, too! :o) )

ReplyDeleteverity, The beginning had me a bit perplexed at one point but then it was smooth sailing. I just kept telling myself to take it one line at a time...then it really was Easy Peasy!
ReplyDeletePenny, Thank you, the colour is called Duck Egg which made me like it that little bit more! My choice of button blended in perhaps too well with my cardie...these show off how pretty they are *smile*.
Love the colour and delicate little buttons. Need some cold weather, now!
ReplyDeleteVintage Reading, Absolutely...for now the only place I'll be wearing it is the freezer section of the grocery store!
ReplyDeleteDarlene, where do your talents end?! This is just BEAUTIFUL! What gorgeous wool and buttons and the pattern of course is magnificent. You are so clever with knitting needles! One day I hope to be able to finish a scarf...I have small dreams!
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely sweater; beautiful work.
ReplyDeletebooksnob, Welcome back and thank you for your kind words! I must stop by yours and see how your holiday went...plug in the kettle!
ReplyDeleteDiane, How nice of you to stop by and thanks for the compliment!
Wow great work. It looks terrific!
ReplyDeleteIt's such a beautiful sweater, and you really chose the loveliest color wool. I'm looking forward to seeing your next knit, especially now I know which pattern you're making!
