You ask and I answer in as comfortable a way as possible for me: partial body shot only, so as to show the combination of the Mia shrug with the silk chiffon dress.
You have to take my word for it when I tell you that my makeup was flawless and my Heidi-style braids were smooth and neat. The jewelry, made for me by Stylish Girl, was a perfect match with its semi-precious stones of green and brown.
This shot was taken a couple of days ago, but I held off on showing it until I could complete the modifications to add the seamless, circular knitting option to the Mia pattern.
What’s on the needles at the moment? More swatches for the Walker Treasury Project. I have a couple of months to complete them, which dovetails perfectly with my on again / off again knitting capabilities. Besides that, I get a chance to knit a few rows, learn a new stitch and move on.
Knitting repertoire enhancement, stash diving and instant gratification – all in one!
what a beautiful combination. green is so your color. excellent job on Mia!
It really looks lovely with that dress. It looks dressy and comfortable at the same time
OMG!!! What a stunning combination! Karen, you did an amazing job on Mia.
So your going to send that outfit to me for the end of June for my sisters wedding right??? LOL
I love it…..stunning and fresh.
What a great outfit! The completed Mia looks perfect with that dress. It is has been fun seeing the journey towards the completed shrug. 🙂
Okay, the shrug is nice, I love green, but I must have that dress!
The whole combination is just gorgeous. I’m going to have a go at making Mia my first shrug.
Beautiful Karen, just beautiful. I loved it the first time around and in that green it’s so gorgeous.
KB, I’ve been MIA for some time, but I’ve got to weigh in on how GORGEOUS the Mia is!!! Did you have any problems with the Dream in Color bleeding onto the needles? That happened to a friend of mine who was knitting with it. In other news, congrats on finally figuring out what’s wrong with your SLAP. . . I hope those surgeons get their acts together because frankly, you need to be knitting!!
What a great look! I love it all.
So so pretty! I would have loved to have seen the whole package put together too. 🙂
Oh, it looks great and a perfect match with the dress. I would love to see the pics with the hair and the makeup. I’m sure you were lookin’ fierce!
It’s a gorgeous, dressy shrug! Wear it proudly as you go through this whole SLAP fiasco.
What lovely shrug! It is a perfect compliment to your pretty dress. Congratulations on another lovely knitted accessory!
Gorgeous! Way to pull a look together! I love the beads, reminds me of one of my favorite projects out of Knitting with Beads. Glad you could finish this up despite the pain.
Mia turned out beautiful. I have to say your dress is soo pretty too! Love the combination.
Thanks for modeling Mia for us. Very pretty.
