Anyone recognise this stitch pattern?I saw this - Caprice - on Rav and absolutely love it!!! I have found it on the person's blog and it is their own design (not a published one) so am going to have a go at making something like it but not sure what the vertical stitch pattern is Does it look familiar to anyone or can you think of something (non-lacy  ) I could put in it's place??
I have PMd the person on Rav - just thinking I could also see whether she has said anything on her blog about the stitch she used 
ETA here is a clearer picture of the zigzag stitch here . |

It looks like a slipped stitch pattern I think
You know like the effect on something like Cherry by anna bell, but laid out in a differant formation iyswim...................

That's what I thought but have looked through my stitch books and can't find anyting like it I might just have to substitute something similar.

I have a cardi pattern at home that looks quite similar - I'll have a look and take a pic tonight. Linda |

That's a lovely looking cardi - is seems a really nice fit...but I don't have a clue about the stitch pattern. |

That is a gorgeous cardi Ali - i dont know what the stitch pattern is either but would be very interested to know if you find out  I am always looking for new stitch patterns to use with SW designs

Thanks Cazzie/Linda!!! I don't use stitch patterns but I much would like to a bit more!! Otherwise what I might do is just purl a couple of stitches I think - I have seen a pattern in 1000 Sweaters which has a similar effect. I have 2 Harmony Guides but not the whole set
It's a lovely top tho isn't it!! I am going to try to design a similar one using SW or Ann Budd. |

I've got the pattern in a project bag with the wool already to go - I just haven't got round to it yet!!
I quite fancy a couple for work, as I don't have to wear a suit just now. We'll have to have a wavy-along

It'd be just right for work
