When I got home this summer, I showed my mom the picture from Interweave Knit’s Spring 2007 magazine of the Rib and Lace Tank… She looked at it and told me I was “ambitious” and she essentially doubted I could knit it seeing as how I just started to teach myself knitting in late January of this year. Well, a month later, I got yarn for it, and now, it’s completed! It fits, looks actually mostly decent… and I did it all myself :woohoo: I learned soooo much doing this, and I’m just happy with it…
(Sorry the pictures aren’t better… I propped up the camera so I could see in the mirror what it was taking a picture of…)
My mom saw it getting done bit by bit, and when it was finally done and it fit, she was kind of shocked I guess… But not completely surprised, she heard all about progress the whole way through, you know, me figuring out what yet another thing means and how to do it…
WOW!! I love it. You did learn a lot on a project like that. Feels good to prove to Mom you could do it doesn’t it. I love the shaping stuff going on in the bust area, and the lace. This is a great little top. Wear it proudly.
