Knitter needs cosplayers help

[Zaec]

Hey all-

I've been asked by some friends to make a simple knitting pattern for Rinoa's sweater/vest thingy, however I'm having problems finding enough high quality images to complete the pattern.

If anyone could help me find some images, I will be happy to post the completed pattern for anyone who whishes to make it.

What I need right now is a shot of the front detail of the sweater, a back detail of the wing pattern, and a full shot of her wearing it. I've tried looking at the images section on this website, and while helpful the images are too small and the only time you see the front detail of Riona's sweater is when her hand is clutching the ring, obscuring the detail shot I need.

As I've said, when done I will be happy to post the resulting sweater pattern and images of the completed outfit for anyone who wants.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out!

P.S. I'm also looking for other FF knitting ideas, so if you think of something that might be interesting to make, let me know.

cloud's vest in ffac? man you can easily see the pattern there.

Now, not only do I not know which images you've seen and haven't, but I'm not a knitting expert- my specialty is crochet, and i'm mediocre at best But I'll try. *has lots of rinoa pictures*

It looks like a fairly wide stitch, as far as I can tell. well, it would be in crochet. dunno about knitting

and I don't know where I found any of these images (well, except the last two^_^) so I just uploaded them:
http://www.snowy-day.net/stuff/rinoa1.jpg -- front view-- focus on the tie strings and the way the shoulder straps work
http://www.snowy-day.net/stuff/rinoa14.jpg -- perspective view-- focus on stitches, wings, and the way it goes real high from her back.
http://www.snowy-day.net/stuff/17.jpg -- general back view
http://www.snowy-day.net/stuff/5-rinoa.jpg -- stitch pattern + wings
http://www.snowy-day.net/stuff/rinoa2.gif -- partial back view. emphasis on size of fabric
http://www.snowy-day.net/stuff/rinoa.gif -- front view-- whole view of fabric, shows the little tie strings
also my sig

good luck I hope you can do this-- I've wanted a duster like hers for a while^_^ (except. . . I can't knit -_-)

You're probably not going to find a lot of cosplayers/help on costumes here. I suggest heading over to http://forums.cosplay.com where there are tons of people that can help you on any aspect of any costume, especially those for Final Fantasy. You'll probably find me bouncing around those forums too.

PS: you can try knitting it in a 2x2 or 3x3 rib (I like to knit too)

i was hoping to ask Zaec for the knitted duster pattern that he/she might have figured out
but he/she doesn't have the email function enabled, so i can't ask =(

does anyone here have any more clues about how to knit the duster properly?

thanks!
