Hurray its finished!
This is Neon
You have all heard a lot about it but its finally done.
This is a lovely lovely pattern and i would really recommend it.
I went for short sleeves mainly because the lace pattern was quite a pain in the round and i couldnt do with the hassle, yes i know all that work but i will wear it over long sleeved tops when i can fit into 'normal' clothes again.
But for now it does quite a good job of fitting despite be being erm this size.
It blocked out super super long as i guess lace does but its not so lacy so i was surprised.
But I am really pleased with it and this was a big tick on my list of things i wanted finishing before bebe arrived and now its done hurray!
see the lace is pretty right? Im terrible at lace but its just 3 stitches on the knit row and 3 on the purl so even i can manage that. It has been compared to Laika which i have knit and remains one of my favourite knitted items though was hard. But i think this is far easier than Laika, the pattern is really well written and i get confused easily lol.
So yes go and make it now!
