I have been working on this project since June, so it's with more than a little excitement that I finally show you my newest pattern in Twist Collective, called Bijou.
1. Bijou - Red, 2. Bijou - Black, 3. Bijou - Red, 4. Bijou - Black
Created with fd's Flickr Toys.
Available in 12 sizes with two different sleeve options, this piece is knit in the round, from the bottom up, and is totally seamless.
The red version is shown knit in my size with no ease. The black version is knit a size larger and has about 3" of ease.
As always, let me know if you have any questions. I love to get feedback.

It's so gorgeous (and PERFECT for the all-black outfit...look out, I think I am having teenage fishnet flashbacks... except really, really CLASSY, if that even makes sense)! Exquisite as ever.

Love it, Marnie! It's sassy. And I say that in the very hip, not at all grandmotherly way. Sassy!

I just sketched something just like this. You beat me to the punch and did it WAY better than I envisioned it. It is so cute!

oh yeah, girl. i just found my inspired knit. it brings the same flavor as the sexy fish net, but much better because it ain't on my legs. i am on it! god, you are a great designer.

Gorgeous!
I don't think my skills are quite up to it yet; but it's landed a place high on my wish list.
Great incentive to become a better knitter quickly!

This is AWESOME! OMG I want to make it right now. Surely I didn't miss this when the winter issue first came out? They should give you your own cover. ~_^

So you made the black one first? Wouldn't it have been nice to get those gorgeous, green, outdoor shots just yesterday? That is a beautiful top! Thanks for the blog!
