Textures and cables...

The knitting pig hasn't posted for a while, so this time it will be a bumper session!

The first jumper is long sleeved in pink double-knitting, with cable, a touch of lace and double moss stitch.  The pattern is repeated on the back and the sleeves:


Here is a close up, showing details of the stitch:

Here is a sleeveless top in a rust wool misture, with cables and a knit & purl pattern on the top.

I think it would have been a better idea (and probably quicker) to have ironed the sheet that the jumper was on first, rather than edit out the creases later!

  Here is on of my favourites, a sage green long-sleeved jumper in a cable and rib pattern.



...and a couple of close up shots of the stitch pattern:

Here is one of my own designs - double knitting, light green, with a cable trellis on the body and cables ending in lace flowers above.  The cable trellis is echoed on the sleeves, which are shaped to be full at the top.



Here are some detailed shots of the cable with lace flowers:

The next jumper is an amber-coloured cable and double moss stitch, which gives a three-dimensional effect, and is also very warm:

The final jumper in this section is another of my own designs in dark green double knitting with moss stitch and cable:




Here is a detail of the stitch (with the tip of my finger also starring in the top left of the photo - oops!)
