Two designs - a jacket with a rib-back section and a matching scarf both using the looping charms pattern. The rib holds the shape of the garment beautifully. Uncomplicated and effortless to make – a rhythmic pattern repeat which is soothing to work, consisting of a crazy lacy motif. No shaping; two rectangles form the front panels, and a square to form the back section. The collar is added after completing the main body of the garment by picking up stitches around the left and right fronts and the neck section. I designed this while listening to Cuban music – I think LOOPY CHARMS feels a little like a wild party going on in the front and an utterly calm and relaxing chilled-out back. Ha!
