And transitions really are tough. Just as you've found the most efficient way to cram it all in, it explodes out again and goes crazy. Hope you get it sorted soon! <br /><br />The skirt is beautiful. I've never knit with linen before, and not much with cotton, either. I'm a wool girl through and through! Still, I bet that the cotton in that skirt will soften into something amazingly comfortable with a few washes. So glad it worked out the way you wanted it to!Ericahttp://desigknit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-72227300993225564872012-06-09T18:01:12.384-07:002012-06-09T18:01:12.384-07:00The skirt is very cute, and very cute on you.

It should be easier than it is in reality. Perhaps our expectations are off a bit (like a few weeks) as it seems to take me a couple of weeks to settle in to the new summer routine.<br /><br />We shall be doing a trip south this week--I'll wave as I pass your spot. :)<br /><br />Thanks for the details on the skirt. I've been toying (casually) with the idea of knitting a skit pattern. The not-see-through-able quality of the yarn is one of the problems that has been holding me back. Yours is lovely.Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912030095491960175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-36839808412520243002012-06-09T16:10:45.186-07:002012-06-09T16:10:45.186-07:00You went past here?
