Smocking on the Move
From the magazine:
A child’s classic smocked-yoke dress started Teva Durham thinking about knitting a smocked pattern. Since she loves to place design elements asymmetrically - and she enjoys a challenge - she worked her sweater with one sleeve smocked and the other one ribbed. The right sleeve is shaped in a different manner from the left to compensate for the different gauges of the stitch patterns. Not content to end her smocking at the sleeve cap, Teva carried it over the shoulder in a fluid manner and onto the neck. Unlike traditional smocking, the stitch she used is easy to work; you smock as you go.
