Clapotis Completed

Clapotis now completed, I pressed this fairly heavily to give it a "drapey" look.

Clapotis underway, this is a yarn by Garn Studio, 50% wool and 50% silk in a slightly tweedy muted old rose colour, very easy to work with, as others have done I did not use stitch markers but knitted the stitch to be dropped pearlwise.

What size needles did you use? I've got some variegated 4ply that I'd love to use for a clapotis but I'm not sure whether it would work...

I used 3.75mm addi circsI think you could use a wide range of yarns and needles on this and it looks terrific in variated yarns, go for it!

Your clapotis looks fantastic such a wonderful light drape and the rest of your creations look pretty darn good!. Please can you tell me if you are the person who posted details of a mini clapotis some weeks ago?

Do you by chance do any commission knitting because apart from running the internet store celticove.com we are about to open up a brand new store in Chester called STASH. I am in need of some model garments knitting up.
Kind regards
