WIP - Sylvi

Blocking fronts
Blocking the fronts of my Sylvi. The cable design comes from the hood. I still need to add petals to the flower. That is what all the white fuzzy yarn is there for; to show where to pick up stitches for the petals.

Blocking back
The back piece on the "blocking table". I have 8 more petals to add to the back...

Another close up
A close up from the cable design on the back. I love how the cables really pop out!


Left to do:
- Sleeves: pick up stitches from the provisional cast on I made and add 50-60 rows so I can fold up the sleeves. I'm not too fond of the suggested cuff and think this will better suited for me.
- Sew the pieces together.
- Make the hood (Yes, the hood is staying...)
- Block the hood somehow.
- Back, front and hood: make 18 more petals for the flowers and stitch them on.
- Find buttons and sew them on.
