Lulu’s Holey Skirt

SHIT!!!!!!! I TYPED AN ENTIRE ENTRY BUT HIT THE WRONG BUTTON AND EVERYTHING DISAPPEARED!!!! *Cries*

SO AS I WAS SAYING……….. finally have the time to sit my butt down amidst all the work I have to do to upload pictures of my latest FO.


This photo looks scary – like as if she is floating in mid air. *Shudders*

Please pardon the photos – they are very badly taken, I know.

Name of project: Lulu’s Eyelet Skirt

Yarn: 9.5 balls of Moda Vera Bamboo/Cotton in Blue

Needles: Knitpicks Nickel Plated and Harmony 4.5mm

Cast on date: 17 March 2008

Cast off date: 02 June 2008 (It was hibernating for a long time.)

Learned: Nothing.

Modifications: Knitted in the round. Also shortened it by not doing as many repeats of the eyelets. Thank goodness I did so because Lulu is very short. >__<

Mistakes: None! :D

This yarn is very splitty and slippery. But then again, it was relatively cheap yarn from Spotlight. So we can’t expect too much, can we?

The skirt was quite heavy but the draw string I crocheted holds it up fine. I hope it doesn’t drop when Lulu wears it out. Imagine the embarrassment!

On other knitty note, I’ve casted on a few projects. Namely a pair of fingerless gloves for my Aussie Swap Pal, a pair of fingerless gloves for my co-worker’s birthday gift – both of which I have completed one side -, a Donkey Jacket for Sunshine which has gone into hibernation because I needed the needles to start on my Central Park Hoodie.

Yes, I’ve re-casted on my CPH in Cascade 220 wool! Hopefully things go smoothly this time.

Alright, off to knit. I have not knitted the whole day!

I leave you with a picture of Sunshine sitting in the suitcase. :D
