I have put this project off since last August! I bought this beautiful Ultra Pima Cotton on sale at my favorite yarn shop! I am always drawn to bright lime green. I planned to make a sleeveless top I saw on Knitty.com called Petrie. I started the project immediately hoping to be able to wear it in the warm Houston fall season. I knit all the parts, and then had to investigate invisible seaming and hemming. That killed it for me for a while. I went on to other projects, of course. I had enough of the top finished to try it on, and it didn't look the same on me as the girl in the picture. Nevertheless, I was determined to see this project through. I would pick up the project, after viewing youtube videos of people seaming and hemming. Little by little, and much time in between, I finally finished the last hem while at a Friday Night Cajun Sit N Knit at Sugar Land Yarn Company. With friendly motivation I worked till the bottom hem was complete. I rejoiced and celebrated by looking around for more yarn! I'll admit that after taking it home and trying it on, I am a little more pleased with it. I intend to block it, and wear it at least once or twice. Thankfully it looks fabulous on the hanger!
