I count it greatness if I finish sweaters beautifully these days. In her younger years (20s and 30s) my mother knit her own dresses; I have two long 3 mm circular needles left from those days. Bat-wing sleeves, fitted bodices (this was the 1930s and 1940s after all)...she was slim and trim and wore them like a model. I am short and not-so-trim (not fat -- just a bit bumpy!) so....like I said, you are far more courageous than I! May your KM last as long as required for your masterpiece to be completed. (Recommendation: read "SweaterQuest" by Adrienne Martini...will entertain you as you go. <br /><br />Hugs!Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04472013513744969837noreply@blogger.com
