The front is done. This is Susan Duckworth's Venetian Tiles Cardigan with some modifications. I did the ribbing in intarsia instead of all one color, I made each set of tiles different (there were four varieties), and I did the shoulder shaping with short rows instead of binding off. Also, I changed the upper row of tiles to a row of three instead of four because I plan to make this a V-neck vest, and that will match the adaption to the fronts.
She didn't choose this pattern or the colors, so I'm hoping she likes it.
Wow this is just gorgeous, Ruth! And I get the resemblance to venetian beads, having collected a few in my day. Love it, and you too!
