Chinese Style Pullover

I used 1 strand each of Habu Paper A-60 and Habu Tsumugi Silk A-1 2/17 instead of 2 strand of Habu paper A-60 with 5mm circular needles. Very light and comfortable to wear!!

It's 113gm with the 6 buttons

Balance of the yarns: 150gm Habu Tsumugi Silk and 40gm Habu paper.

Tube Top from Phildar Magazine

This is a very simple project. I knitted the front and back body as according to the pattern given in Phildar Magazine.
Modification made: Instead of making the neck tie from 4 strands of yarn, I modified it as according to the pattern shown in 2007 summer Knit.1 magazine.
Yarns used: 4 balls blue colour Katia Gatsby
and 2 balls white Dalmatia cotton & rayon mixed.
I worked on 1 strand each, using 3mm needle for the neck line and ribbing band and 3.75mm for the body front and back.
This is the front view,

and the back,

Yarns: 4 balls Garnstudio Cotton Viscose
Colour: Black

An "oversized" top!

I was supposed to knit a casual top, using Rowan all season cotton. After washing and blocking it ended to be an "oversized" top!

Upside-down Top

This top is made up of crocheted lace for the body and ribbing at the waist. As according to the pattern, it should be 3/4 sleeves length. But I did it shorter as I feel more comfortable wearing it in shorter sleeves. I used 6 balls of Japanese yarns. These yarns are very fine, they are nice and suitable for crochet. But for the ribbing part, i used double strand.
I like this top because i can wear it the normal way,
where the ribbing is at my waist, like this:
or
turn it up-side down, like this: Closer view of the pattern
