Camellia
Pattern: Camellia by Glampyre
Yarn: Classic Elite Duchess in #1060 Greatest Green
Comments: As I mentioned in my previous post, I test knit this for Stefanie Japel, the designer behind Glampyre. Very easy knit, although the seaming was a bit tricky due to the lace. Definitely a keeper! I'm also adding Duchess to my list of all time favorite yarns.
In other news...
Y'all cracked me up with the hair comments. I'm surprised anyone even noticed! I was wearing my clip on extensions in the picture. If any of y'all have wimp
y hair like I do, you should consider trying them. I feel so "Hollywood" when I wear them!My next topic: Christmas knitting. I told everyone I wasn't doing it after my mad dash last year. Little did I know that my girls would see the Twinkletoes pattern on this most recent Knitty. Now, when your babies tell you all they want for Christmas are the slippers and a scooter, any self-respecting mother and knitter will drop all and get to knitting.

Just gorgeous. Yet another pattern (and yarn) I've eyed. Maybe WE were twins in another life? Alas, so little knitting these days!
that turned out great, love the color. hope the knitting goes well, at least they should be quick knits :)
Very cute (and the hair, too, of course!)
goodness... that came out so pretty! love the color too. =)
That's an adorable top and it looks great on you. That color is perfect.
You look so angelic in these pics! Appropriate for this time of year, don't you think?
The sweater is lovely too ;-)
Oh, your girls will look just so cute in their twinkletoes socks -- it'll be totally worth it. I can't wait to see them!
Camillia looks wonderful -- definitely a keeper, as you say.
It looks wonderful! I love Stefanie's patterns - and you did a great job with it :o)
Love it on you....color ,drape, etc. Stephanie has a winning pattern there :)
Hair extensions, eh? Who knew! lol
I see you have your Christmas decorations up. I'm only about half done. Since Dad and I have the "crud" I'm moving kind of slow.
Ditto on how good it looks. That color looks great on you too.
Mmm, green! I love that yarn as well, I call it the kitchen sink yarn because what fiber ISN'T included?? Who knew that so many fibers could get along so well.
Can't wait for Stef's book to be out...
The sweater looks great and I love the color. I understand how you could get sucked into the Christmas knitting. With girls as adorable as yours, how could you deny those cute little faces.
I thought clip on hair extensions were for Rock Stars - OH WAIT!! You own a yarn shop - same thing!!!
I'm absolutely stunned by how gorgeous Camellia turned out, and you look so fantastic in it! I'm a big lace-fan, so this is definitely a pattern that I'd try out immediately! The colour's so lovely too - it's perfect, absolutely!
So cute! I think it turned out so well. And I love the color! I am jealous that you are able to wear such things in December - too cold here! :)
Beautiful! It looks just great on you, and I love the color
I love this! I have that pattern in my pile just itchin' to be started. It turned out great!
