FO Friday: Brilliant Retro

I was looking through my photos and projects on Ravelry and realized I have a few finished objects I haven’t shared with you yet! First up, Brilliant Retro. This was finished in 2009, but I waited until I went on vacation at Bass Lake to get photos. Photography is courtesy of Jenny Wilde, who is awesomely fantastic. Crappy modeling is courtsey of, well, me. Who needs to get better poses.

Ahem.

I love the back detail on this. And it really does fit wonderfully.

    Oh wow. That sweater is divine! Love the design on the back! You are a perfect model - plus - incredible skirt!
  • Ivy
    Thank you! I've actually had the skirt for years, but could never find a top
    with quit the right shade of purple before. I'm excited to actually get a
    chance to wear it.

    Is this the sparkly yarn?? It is a very cute sweater
  • Ivy
    Yes, that's the sparkly yarn. I finally finished it.

    I love love love that top! I think the rocks do a great job of setting it off and accentuating the color of the sweater. You are also a fine model. Way more confident than me.... I never show my face! :P

    It was fun to take photos out in a new setting! And with someone else to
    actually hold the camera...
