Argyle vest
2014/2016
1 1/2" x 1 1/4"
Silk Thread, Wood
 
This Argyle Vest was made with silk. The 5 buttons are custom made with wood.  The piece is displayed in a custom hanging case. 
To create my knitted pieces, I design my own original patterns and then use my own hand-made knitting needles that I make from surgical stainless steel.  I use fine cotton or silk thread to knit with.  If there are buttons on the piece, they work.  If there are pockets, they are real.  Socks have turned heels, gloves have fingers so small they are too big for a grain of rice. Every aspect of my work is meant to be as real as possible.  Please feel free to email me at altheacrome@gmail.com with any further questions.
 
Dimensions of Case: 8 1/2" X 8 1/2" X 2 1/2"
