By the pricking of my thumbs… ;)
The fourth character in the series, Wicked, with Snow White’s stepmother in mind. :) Starts all bright and cheery with little flowers and ligght, bright colours and gets progressively darker, more complex and twisted. :)

135x55cm (22x54in)
Sequence:
Chart 1 x2

Colour note: the darkest blue is more purple irl, and the burgundy not such a contrast against the grey that follows.
Turns out that while it’s easy to get a dress form to look demure or romantic, it’s surprisingly hard to get her to look like she’s off to enjoy some nefarious doings in the woods.. Who knew?
Cynthia is kindly knitting up the Beetle sample, and I’m using the Twisted Angst because the name is so apt.

Jan 21. Dilemma.
I seem to have accidentally charted 3 distinct patterns for this one - a crescent, a triangle and a heart. Oops. Now I can’t decide. Um. Pending. Naturally now I want to try all three.
Update 12 mar (wow, it only took me 6 weeks to decide..)
Going with a heart shape for now because I want to try out some fancy spine options. This one has an anti-spine, a single row of holes. :)
Also because the straight triangle would have needed much longer charts, and there are already 3 crescents in this collection.
