Ta Da!!

The yarn gods heard my pleas and allowed me just enough yarn to complete my tank. I think I'll call her Emily.

Emily is my the first piece of clothing I've designed from scratch, and I'm darn proud of her. If I could do one thing over, I would stop the ribbing an inch below where it stops now, but hindsight is 20/20. Chock it up to experience and move on!!

As mentioned before, Emily was knit with Jo Sharp's Soho Summer. I have mixed feelings about this sport weight yarn. I love how well it drapes, however, it splits very often, to my dismay. Would I use it again? I'd probably shop around for another cotton yarn (there are TONS!) before coming back to this one.
