Drell Sep 2020 4:34pm, 3 Sep 2020 2,498 posts	0 Drell HB I did an earlier one of hers: https://www.ravelry.com/projects/drelll/fairisle-club-3-lerwick. It gets quite a lot of wear in winter. It was fun, but really quite difficult: stranded colour work in the round I can cope with (and there was quite a lot of that) but on the flat it's something else!
HellsBells Sep 2020 4:37pm, 3 Sep 2020 27,153 posts	0 HellsBells I actually prefer colour work done flat - probably because it’s the way I did it years ago. I’m unsure enough about the kimono shape and neckline to not spend that much money though

sallykate Sep 2020 6:27pm, 3 Sep 2020 6,862 posts	0 sallykate That is a good idea - I've thought about offering them as it would be handy to know you have a clean face covering in a bag. Are they an envelope/pillowcase sort of construction?

runnyeyes Sep 2020 7:36pm, 3 Sep 2020 1,814 posts	0 runnyeyes I absolutely love the colourwork in that jacket HB. But I agree... the back panel is stunning... but the design of the front .. not quite right. I don’t have a particular preference with flat or in the round stranded colourwork, but I would be so slow .. probably 6 months work for me, assuming I don’t get distracted.
