What is Vera? Well Vera is a colorway I've always liked from Lorna's Laces yarns. See the yummy chocolate, creamy beige, and bright raspberry....making myself hungry now ;)
Toooooooo cute or what! I hope to see a modeled shot one day!
Bitty Bump by Gina Bomono
Lorna's Laces Shepard Worsted, "Vera" Colorway
US 11 & 15 dpn/circs
Used approx. 180 yds, approx. 45 yds leftover
Mods: well, not sure if you call it one, but I doubled worsted yarn for the bulky weight. I wanted superwash and the only bulky that fit the bill wasn't so voila, double the worsted and there ya go!
I also picked up 8 stitches in the underarm area to ensure no holes. I slipped the first stitch at the beginning of each row (well I did forget a few times ;)
A cute, easy knit. I love it with the ribbon, but heck you could add a button too. No buttonhole needed either.
I think the patterns from the designer are really cute, sorta like wee grown up wear. I also think they will be perfect for handspun yarns too!
