Camptown ladies sing this song
I tried a new pattern to see what would happen and thought now would be the time to try and make a black & white striped tunic with the extra long flared sleeves. Because, why not? It took f o r e v e r to do, just way too long. It's also more fitted than I would have liked for this, I would have liked more ease and I need to block the sleeves because they're too tight and should flow more.
Anyway,

As an added bonus, I thought afterwards that the longer sleeve length might suit P. and lo and behold, it does.

Not at all her style though. My fingers are itching like mad from having to strand the wool, itchy owie!
Pattern: lula bebop's Basic Top Down Raglan with modified sleeves and body.
Needles: US 0 (2mm), my gauge was something insane like 10 stitches to the inch.
Yarn: Karabella Lace merino in black and white
Time: About ten hours.
Notes: In the future, I will not do invisible increases, I think it looks kinda weird.
