That’s what Lucy is wondering. I’ve been working on Vivian, which is a Christmas gift for my very slim daughter. Lucy can barely squeeze into it and she’s a little miffed.
I’ve finished the body up to the armholes. Now it’s on a holder until I complete the sleeves. I had almost finished the first sleeve, but decided that it was a bit too tight. (I’m using a finer yarn than called for and monkeying around with the pattern to get the right fit.) So I ripped back and started my increases much earlier than the pattern calls for; I’ll probably end up with more stitches than I’m supposed to and I’ll need to devise some (I hope clever) way of getting rid of them as I work the yoke.
The color is not particularly true in these photos, but c’est la vie.
I just finished a 
) about Surly’s Topsy Turvy pattern. We are making a promise to you, our readers: the pattern will be available as a free download by this Sunday. It will be out in time to do a bit of gift knitting for the holidays. It is our gift to you as loyal friends and readers, so stop back on Sunday for the pattern.
