Rich Posted August 5, 2016 Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 Wow that's impressive It's hard enough knitting a plain cardigan, never mind one with a pattern like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted August 5, 2016 Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 Brilliant.... How long does it take to make something like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sagitar Posted August 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 My daughter tells me that the pattern is not the difficult bit. The garment was knit on a single circular needle i.e. it starts as a tube. She then reinforces the location of the front opening and the pockets, then cuts the openings and finishes the edgings and does any extra knitting required. e.g. making the pockets and the sleeves. There are no bits sewn on, it is all one piece. I haven't a clue how long it takes. She tends to have several projects on the go and things stop dead when she has to go trotting off overseas to deal with issues at the factories that buy her company's products. She had just come back from Taiwan when I took the pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sagitar Posted August 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 It's a job of work to her! I'm pretty sure I've spoken about it in the past, but the company for which she works makes industrial x-ray machines that are part of the quality control process in the factories that make large scale integrated circuits (all the chips that go into 'phones, computers etc). The x-ray machine has to be integrated into the system that controls the chip production line and my daughter and her team write the real-time software than enables that integration, together with the graphical user interfaces that enable the factory staff to start up and control the x-ray machine. I think she's pretty smart, but I'm her dad so I would wouldn't I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffers Posted August 6, 2016 Report Share Posted August 6, 2016 You must be very proud. Rightly so - even for the knitting let alone her occupational/academic achievements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
