lace top photo

Here's a photo of the top I'm working on. I don't think I'll be wearing it with the black lace gauntlets, but anyway... sorry, model, for chopping off part of your head!

The bit of swatch that I have here shows how I decided to add in some eyelets to make the hem part lacier. It is lacier, but I don't know if I think it's necessarily attractive. Maybe I will stagger the eyelets so they don't look so... vertical? Columnar? Rigid? Bah.



The yarn I'm using is Pingouin benares. It's cotton and polymide and has just the right amount of sproinginess.

P.S. Somehow, the blog settings were such that someone was supposed to be moderating the comments. Oops. Just realized that and have addressed the problem. Not that we're drowning in comments or anything, but sorry if your comment was held up by this unnecessary process.
