I think I mentioned the merino/bamboo shell, the one I ran out of merino for and had to unwind some merino plied with itself to get enough to finish the project? The one that, even finished and blocked, just didn't hang right, stopping short of where it needed to be? The one that I found some more merino for in a shop in Roseburg, guided by Rumplestiltskin? That one.
Well, the new merino has been spun and plied with the bamboo, and a new six inches have been knitted, bottom up, in the same lace pattern as the rest of the shell, to the same proportions, continuing the slight A-line slant of the finished part of the garment, which itself was knitted bottom-up, from an edge cast on in long-tail.
So, visualize this: a lacy, sleeveless, v-neck shell 20" long, and a lacy band 6" deep. However are they going to be joined, invisibly, so they look like a 26" garment begun from the bottom up?
Kitchener. (Invisible grafting.)
Stay tuned.
