Blissful Color Top 彩虹背心

看上了Lion Brand網頁上的一個圖樣 - Blissful Blue Top, 照片上模特兒穿上真是好看, 雖然我知道我穿上一定沒有千萬分之一好看, 但是覺得套上一件小外套配搭應該不錯的, 所以就決定動手了.

Found a pattern from the Lion Brand's website - Blissful Blue Top, this top looks nice on the model in the photo, although I believe if I wear it, it won't be even close to the beauty of that, but it should be not bad if pair with a cardigan, so I decided to make it.

我沒有使用圖樣指示的毛線, 而換成了之前網上折扣買來的Amazing毛線, 而這種毛線比較細, 所以我自己稍微調整了行數和針目, 也加長了長度, 結果也只用了3卷毛線.

I didn't use the yarn stated in the pattern, instead, I used the Amazing yarn which I bought some time ago online with a discount, this type of yarn is a little thinner, so I have to slightly adjusted the row and stitch numbers, and added some length to it, anyhow, I ended up using only 3 balls of yarn.

由於我沒有百分百專注看圖樣, 所以在前面蕾絲圖樣那塊, 出了小小錯誤, 而且還是我完成了左半片後才發覺, 不過還好不影響整體感. 我的錯誤在於應該每4行才做一次的邊緣麻花圖樣, 我卻每兩行就重複了, 既然錯了一半, 就得把另一半也錯下去了, 哈~

Since I didn't pay full attention to the pattern, so I made a mistake on the lace pattern part of the front, and I found that out only after I finished the left front piece, but luckily it did not affect the overall view of it. The mistake I made was at the cable pattern on the edge, it supposed to be repeated every 4th row, but I did it every 2 rows, and since I've completed half, so I've to continue the mistake for the other half, haha~

我這件彩色的和原版的單色的感覺很不一樣吧~

Mine with colors looks totally different from the plain color of the original, right?

Raglan Sleeved Pullover 插肩長袖毛衣

蠻久之前就買了一本專織男性款式的棒針書<Knits Men Want>, 因為覺得老是在為自己編織, 卻甚少為老公弄個甚麼, 之前最厲害的就只有去年那件格子毛背心了. 所以在我忙完那條雙面圍巾後, 就動手這一個項目了.

I've bought this specially knitting for guys book <Knits Men Want> for quite some time already, as I always knit for myself, but seldom knit anything for my hubby, the most was just the argyle vest that I knitted last year. So after I finished the double knitting scarf, I decided to start this project.

從書中選了兩個款式, 一件是Raglan Sleeved Henley, 另一件是Baseball Jersey. 最後決定是第一款, 因為沒有嘗試過插肩式, 而且這個款式也比較簡單.

I've chosen two styles from the book, one is the Raglan Sleeved Henley, another is the Baseball Jersey. Finally I decided to make the first style, as I never try knitting raglan style before, and this pattern is much easier.

插肩式其實真的蠻簡單, 只是從領口處開始用輪針慢慢的增加針目一片式的織下去, 所以肩膀上, 袖子上和主衣邊上不會出現縫接處, 整體比較美觀.
而且這也是我第一次嘗試長袖和有紐扣的款式, 其實沒有想像難~

Raglan style was pretty easy actually, all start at the neck edge with circular needle, slowly increased the stitches and knitted one piece from top down, so there was no sewing edges at the shoulder, sleeves and main body, overall it looked tidier.
Besides, this was my first time trying a pattern with long sleeves and button, it was not as hard as I thought~

原本款式只是單一顏色, 可是我想要購買的毛線數量不夠, 所以我就稍微更改了一下, 把中間部分改為淺灰色, 然後在袖口處也給編上兩條淺灰色, 不會那麼單調.

The original pattern called for only one color yarn, but the yarn that I wanted was not enough in stock, so I decided to slightly change the pattern, which the middle part of the main body had been changed to light grey, while knitted two light grey stripes at the sleeve ends.

東方人的身體沒有老外的寬, 也沒有他們的身體那麼長, 所以我把身體部分的長度縮減, 然後袖子部分也稍作修改得較窄一些. 可是老公說穿上去好像還是覺得寬了些, 抱歉啦, 我的功力還不夠嘛...

Our Asian body was not as wide and slender as the Western guy, so I've shorten the length of the body part, and tighten abit on the sleeve part too. However, hubby was saying it is still a bit too loose for him, I'm sorry dear, my skill is not that good yet....

無論如何, 這就是我送給老公今年的聖誕禮物啦!

No matter how, this will be my Christmas present for my dear hubby!

Jana Cable-Pattern Tunic長版V領娃娃衫

鄭重宣布, 費盡心血, 用了一個多月的時間, 我的第一件針織衣終於完工了!!!~
(之前我和老公的vest不太算, 因為只是背心, 不能單穿嘛)

這一件長版V領娃娃衫是根據<Fresh Fashion Knits>這本書上的款式, 名為Jana Cable-Pattern Tunic.

                                         Front                                                Back

原版使用的是Rowan Wool Cotton毛線, 可是不好找, 而且價格較貴, 所以我改用100%Acrylic壓克力的Caron Simply Soft, 不但可以用於洗衣機和烘乾機, 而且便宜, 又比一般壓克力毛線柔軟, 所以材料費才不超過$20, 可是一個月的人工費就不便宜哦, 哈哈~ 不過, 滿足感和成功感卻是無價哦!

很喜歡這個款式, 簡單-只需要編織前後兩片, 卻又有一點特別在於前後中間部位的麻花編織, 最後加上領口和袖口連接即可, 所以花費的時間主要是編織它的長度.

之前的毛背心由於需要混色, 所以衣服的反面比較雜亂, 可是這一件只是單色, 所以也比較乾淨.

謝謝Angie成為我的麻豆讓我拍照, 穿在她身上太寬鬆了, 因為我沒有她苗條嘛, 哈哈~

❤情侶黨毛背心❤

之前織了一件溫暖牌給老公, 很高興他很喜歡, 同時他建議我給自己也織一件, 粉紅色的, 那我們就可以情侶黨出動了, 哈~

而我為了趕在過年時能夠出貨, 就日日夜夜趕工, 終於在一個星期後搞定了~

經過上一次的經驗, 這一次我的粉紅毛衣就根據老公那件的款式, 稍作修改, 只用了兩個顏色配圖案, 先用單色編織整件, 然後再用另一色毛線用刺繡的方式縫上去, 就減少了上次那種毛線纏來纏去的麻煩, 所以才能減少工程時間完成.

我的愛心毛衣, 粉墨登場~

百份百溫暖牌毛背心

我終於實現我的諾言了!

開始學針織時, 編織的都是配件類啊或者小東西之類的, 如圍巾披肩包包帽子手套襪子, 而且幾乎都是女生用的(因為我都用自己的手手腳腳作藍版嘛), 所以親愛的都常說怎麼都沒有他的份. 我就曾經答應過他, 一定會給他編織一件背心, 因為我的功夫還沒到家, 編織毛衣似乎有點困難, 想說沒有領子袖子的背心應該應付得來.

答應了許久, 卻一直沒有動工, 在聖誕期間送了我織的帽子給朋友們時, 就提起這件事, 所以當下就決定回來後立刻開工!
用了3個星期的時間, 百份百溫暖牌毛背心終於面市了~

根據網上找到的這個Mangyle Vest款式, 是我第一次嘗試織argyle圖案.
知道自己的能力有限, 所以不敢作那種市面上賣的, 整件都是argyle圖案, 所以knitty.com的這個款式正合我意.

在織這個圖案時, 真的滿混亂的, 三種顏色的毛線捲來捲去的, 還好只是一小片而已, 不然我可頭疼死了.
話雖如此, 當看著圖案慢慢浮現時, 真的很滿足哦~

雖然我的手工蠻粗糙的, 可是不仔細看, 也還算是一件不錯看的毛背心哦, 特別是穿在親愛的身上時, 哈~

所以老公, 別再說沒有你的份囉, 這件作品可是我所有編織過裡頭最複雜最大的呢!~
