Trudie
Trudie, started 7 Aug 05 finished 8 Sept 05
Pattern: My own, available from Hipknits.
Yarn: Hipknits silk
Petals, and insect wings. In seaweed green and a rich deep purple, it put me in mind of peacocks, and scarab beetles. It feels refined, precious, cool and heavy against the skin.
Edit: a couple more pictures added, as requested by Francoise:

How lovely. See, you don't need any silly design course.
Posted by: jodi at September 21, 2005 11:23 PM
Just wanted to add my compliments on Trudie. It is so absolutely lovely. When I think of your work, it's the first word that comes to my mind, lovely. The second and third are, technically impeccable.
You are such an inspiration. Thanks for sharing!

I am hugely impressed. It's beautiful and I love your accompanying style & colour notes. London Fashion Week has nothing on your designs.

This turned out to be as chic as I expected. And I'm so touched by the name!
Posted by: troodle at September 26, 2005 10:06 PM
Trudie is so pretty! You are making me think I'll have to find a good source of merino/silk to spin up and dye and make into lovely things. Merino/silk will also flow beautifully.

Amazing!!! Love your sweater :-)
Posted by: Deena at September 27, 2005 10:52 PM
