done part two
here's the pattern in pdf format
it seems as if it is never going to stop raining here, so i took some pictures anyway.
here it is,the leaf tee
a close-up of the center panel:
yarn: 4 balls of debbie bliss cathay
needles: size us6 denise circulars
time spent knitting: 9 days
pattern: none, just a top down raglan with a panel of the vine stripe pattern found on page 272 of barbara walker's 2nd knitting treasury
i have to say it again, i love working with cathay. i've already purchased more, for a similar project in a teal color.
after wearing the t-shirt for the last few hours, i have to say the fit is just right. i'm delving back into my barbara walkers tonight to see what i can add to the next one.

I've just finished making this, in a lovely mustardy-yellow alpaca yarn from Rooster. It is gorgeous, although I'm paranoid about making things that end up too small, mine is a little on the loose side compared to your's! Thanks for sharing the pattern - i will be wearing it with pride (I'm British and our weather is still distinctly chilly at the moment). :)
