"Carrots and Peas" - An Experimentation in Fibers and Textures!
A glass of wine and a comfy Grape Cardi Relax and Enjoy!
This "Plumpious Grapes" Cardigan was designed by Sharon Nani for the knitters magazine "INKnitters"written by Sharon explaining how to knit this 'blistered' tri-dimensional fabric on knitting machines can be found in that issue of INKnitters - the magazine is out of print now, but you may be able to get a back issue from Fiber Circle Publishing
Sharon Nani's design: "Carrots & Peas" was first published in a Swiss Knitting Model Book in 1994. The unique Tri-dimensional "blister" fabric became one of her design trademarks. Mixing several different fibers within a garment tells the story behind the motifs. Mercerized Cotton feels smooth like the peeling of the carrots or the shell of the peas. Rayon Boucle is bumpy and rough like the leaves of a carrot. It is all brought together with the glamour of the shine in the main background yarn. Together they all remind you of what your mother always told you: "Eat your Carrots and Peas"
Both of these sweaters have been sold, so watch the of a Kind category of The Knit Tree's online store catalog to see if other creations become available for sale.
The Knit Tree will be offering these Articles written by Sharon Nani in a special category as time allows to convert them into Web language. So if you want, tackle knitting this Knit Cardigan yourself on a Passap Electronic knitting machine or translate to any electronic standard gauge machine. The original Cardi is no longer available in our Online Catalog in the One of a Kind Tops, but watch for other Wearable Art or Unique Knit garments.
