Today we went to the beach and I thought it was an awesome opportunity to photograph Liesl.
I loved making this pattern. It was such a simple quick knit! And the end result is so cute...
A nice, feminine, springtime sweater.
The great thing about the Liesl pattern is that there are so many variations and options available to make the sweater your own.
I chose the wide neckline-full-length-longer sleeved-buttoned version with no picot trim. I love it. Well. I love it mostly. I kind of regret not making longer sleeves. I think that a few more inches would have been a bit more flattering. Oh well. I don't feel like ripping anything out, I'll just deal with it.
The buttons I picked out were shell buttons, perfect for the look I had in mind.
The Rowan Summer Tweed also gives this sweater the springtime quality I was hoping for.
To me this sweater just looks beachy.
I think that Liesl translates nicely with a casual jeans and tee shirt look or like this over a summer dress. I know I will get lots of use out of it this season!
