Silk Slip--almost there


Just a little more assembly and the Silk Slip will be finished.
I'm really happy with the way it's turning out for the most part. The only problem I foresee is that the bust seems to be too ample. I might end up having to fiddle around with it to get the right fit.

My knitting music has been odd lately--some of the usual classical, but I've also been on an odd 90s nostalgia kick (Weezer, the Pixies, the odd Rentals song). Also recently I was reminded of my love for the Hollies by the fact that my brother named his new cat Carrie Anne, so I created a Pandora station modeled after them. It was really good (sometimes these things can be hit or miss; for example, the Mazzie Star and Iron and Wine stations are really good, whereas the Olivia Tremor Control and Sonic Youth stations were awful). Anyway, the Hollies station was playing all kinds of things like the Kinks and even Weezer's Island in the Sun--come to think of it, that's how I got in that 90s mood.

My progress has been dramatically slowed of late. Mostly this has been because of moving, but the other, cuter reason is the new addition to our household.
