Okay, I'm finally bloody well finished with that lingerie I was knitting. I had the brilliant idea of trying to make the top large enough in this bizarre improvised way and, well, the lace pattern foiled it. Plus there was that whole 4 days wasted by me realizing that I'd been using the wrong size needles, making half of the knickers with the correct size of needles, and then figuring out once I'd done that piece that I ultimately preferred the fabric produced by the smaller, wrong needles. R-I-I-I-I-I-P went that piece I'd just laboured on for 3 days, and I started over. Things worked out well after that point, but the top took me far longer than it had any right to.
Yeah, I know. Pictures. Well, the light was fading fast and this stuff was too big for me, so you get exactly one, not terribly good picture.
Yup. This was fun to make, but I'm not going to be making another incarnation of it for myself any time soon. Halter tops and my boobs don't get along, in case you were wondering about the bra I'm wearing under the knit bra. It also seemed sort of inconsiderate to model lingerie that wasn't for me without wearing something under it, so yse, I am wearing my own knickers under that.
I hope she doesn't mind that this is going to be 2 weeks late.
