My Custom Pieces
 




  
Gila Monster Top
Designed and made for an american customer from a basic idea for a top made in a Gila Monster pattern
 
A Gila monster is a south american lizard with distinctive pink and black curved and spotted design.
 
My client asked me if I could do her a top based on the skin pattern of this distinct lizard. I discussed with  her her requirements about yarn and style and we agreed on something similar to Crabapple but in a yarn that would reflect the reptilian aspects of its skin. I suggested a tape  yarn  that alternated between matt and shiny  in pink and black and emailed her some basic designs. Once she  had agreed which of the 6 designs she wanted I drew up the design on graph paper and knitted it up.
