Todays finished work is another commission piece for the Bettyb label (On sale at Mensah boutique, Portobella Road, London). It is made from vintage black cotton double knit. The pattern is also a vintage pattern but was designed in childrens sizes, so the task was to grade and alter into a ladies industry standard size 12 (U.K.) as a sample garment.
...The skirt part is worked up to the waist and then shaped, the crochet pattern then changes in a cluster pattern.
.... the waist is held in with a chain and double stitch belt which has a 3 loop styling at either end.
....I am playing with light on crochet patterns at the moment and I like this type of photography which plays with focus. the lens was trying to peep through the open stitches to view the other side. (Would work much better with a quality camera)
... the original vintage pattern did not have pockets. So this was part of a pattern write, as Bettyb label tends to have a in-seam pocket signature.
