| Options for length, size, collar, cuff and hem give you kits that you'll love to knit and love, even more, to wear |
 Above right in Olive, the Ruby Swagger in the short length also has the shawl collar option. Left in Stone Fleck, again in short length with square collar. Centre below again in Olive shows the longer length with the shawl collar. The knitting pattern includes both collar styles and all length options.
Ruby Knitting kit short A$225/ long A$240 or as the pattern A$35
Knitting Kit is the pattern, yarn and handmade buttons.
For the longer length you'll need to order 2 extra 50g balls of yarn.
These shots show the A line shaping between the cables, hem to shoulder, Also, if you look closely below left you can see the side seam is off centre to the back next to the cable.
Left shows the sleeve increase into the centre of the sleeve, mirroring the A line shaping in the body of the garment in order to widen the sleeves. |

I am always thinking about the variations and options I can include in a design while I'm writting the pattern. There are always length options, to accommodate tall and not-so--tall ladies, plus neckline options too.
The colder the climate the higher the collar of course!
The Metro Coat, has three length options, designed with the round neck style, plus two collar options, extending the neck into a small collar as the blue example below, or a deep collar as the neutral tones. The right shows the wide collar worn open and the left image shows the same collar worn high - there is a button under the collar to hold it high and warm. |
 |
 The images below show the length options left and right in neutral while the blues are the Swagger, or shortest length. The grey and the green both show the A-line middle length and the red shows the longest Swingcoat length. There are 7 chest sizes to suit every body!
These are now classic pieces in my range, which I sell as ready made and made to measure and of course, as a knitting kit.
The patterns for the hats are also included in my book, knitted in wool, which was my inspiraton for my range of hats in Azteca yarn (left). |

| Susan sent me this shot when she'd completed the Harlequin Swagger from the cover of my book. Great shot, Susan. |
I know the image on the cover of my book makes this look a little daunting, but there are many ways Mitres can be used and they create such stunning results.
Below I have trimmed the Mitre Drape into a vest; the body of the garment is knitted first, the basket stitch squares create the template to pick up the stitches along the front edge and the hemline for the Mitres. |
Mitre Drape Vest ready made A$445 /
knitting kit A$130 / Pattern A$15 |
    |
Mitres using variegated yarn to create drifts of colour or using 4 to 10 colours to create a graded light to dark effect. These are great fun to knit as well as wear.
Centre the Miami Drape, the back panel is knitted first, then stitches are picked up and knitted to the front edge, the hem line has cast off steps which provide the template to add the Mitres.
The Azteca Coco Vee Capelet is knitted totally in Mitres without seams, using 2 varigated colours in Azteca Fine. |

 Right the Wave scarf was my first piece 
working with short rows and most importantly with these great yarns boasting long lengths of colour drifts - so it's not the same as hank dyed.
