This picture shows the reverse side. The top is the reverse side of the traditional mattress stitch (invisible on the "right side"). You can see that it is a thicker seam. The bottom is the reverse side of the seam stitched between the slipped stitches.
If I stitch in the middle of the slipped stitches I can wear Rosetta as a reversible skirt, making the seam visible on both sides. However, after seeing Del's beautiful Dolman Pullover that has the seams on the outside, I'm tempted to do the regular mattress stitch making the seam invisible on the right side, with a bulkier seam on the reverse. What do you think?

Looking good!!!
ReplyDeleteI think that the reversible option is a good idea.It is lovely knitting. And doesn't your cat look gorgeous!
ReplyDeletelove that linen stitch, and the yarn you're using is really pretty! I like the idea of putting your own spin on it and making the seams visible -that could be really pretty!
ReplyDeleteThat stitch pattern is lovely...the yarn shows it off so well. I like the reversible option, too--sounds really inventive.
ReplyDeleteYour cat is so adorable.
Thanks for the love :-)
Yeap make the skirt as seamsless as possible! Reversible! Can't wait to see it!
ReplyDeleteThis is just stunning. I think I'm too tired right now to toss my vote in. I love a clean line - but the idea of having the seam showing like Cozy did is a terrific idea too.
ReplyDeleteyour seams are so nice! want to start doing mine?
ReplyDelete*hi murkito!
i really like the bottom/second option for the seam. the RS and WS of that seam are both really nice-looking. and the linen stitch with that yarn is beautiful! that will be a great garment for years to come.
ReplyDeletethanks for the complement, and I return it, those are some awesome pics of some seriously sweet knitting.
ReplyDeleteI think that the seam should be invisible, but seeing the seams also gives your skirt a certain flair. There are plenty of clothing of which you can clearly see the seam. It becomes a matter of preference.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you decide.
Knit on!
I can't wait to see it finished. Inside or outside, I think it will be beautiful.
