The day before yesterday I started a jacket for myself from Raasiku (Aade Lõng) 8/3 wool. For a while I had a major headache choosing a stitch pattern. I did not want the same as in my daughter's jacket, although this is exactly the kind of pattern that are suitable for this yarn. Finally, I picked something that is not very usual (or at least it seems to me).
Tagantvaade:
The back view:
Ja pisut teistsugune eestvaade:
And a slightly different front view:
Kõige õigem värv on alumisel fotol. Mitte päris valge, vaid helehall. Veendusin järjekordselt, et pärlkude ja selle liigid tulevad sellest lõngast hästi. Muide, mõni lõng talub hästi ühekordset pärlkude (1 pp, 1 ph, järgmises reas peegelpilt), aga mitte kahekordset (1. rida: 1 pp, 1 ph; 2. rida: mustri järgi; 3. rida: 1 ph, 1 pp; 4. rida: mustri järgi). Mõni jällegi soosib kahekordset. Ja mõnele sobib nii üks kui teine. Ma ei oska seda seletada.
The colour is rendered most adequately in the bottom picture. Not exactly white but light-grey. Again I had a chance to observe that moss stitch and its subtypes look well in this yarn. By the way, some yarns tolerate moss stitch (k1, p1, the opposite in the back row) but not double moss stitch (Row 1: k1, p1; Row 2: knit as the stitches look; Row 3: p1, k1; Row 4: like Row 2). Some yarns, on the contrary, favour double moss stitch. And some are good for both. I have no explanation to this.

What an interesting stitch pattern :-)) It is so structural..I like it and really want to see what develops next with sleeves ;-)))
Minu pühad on möödunud arvutist ja varrastest eemal ja nüüd tasapisi võiks midagi alustada. Ilus ja jõuline muster, tõesti villasele lõngale sobiv.
Deena, thanks! The sleeves need some serious thinking because the stitch pattern is rather large and complicated.
Heli, aitäh! Loodetavasti täna näeme ja saad alustada midagi uut.
Paso para saludarte y desearte muy feliz año!!!
