This Week's Progress
Jan. 24th, 2014 05:20 amI'm going to try to get back to posting at least once a week, not that anyone probably reads this.
The ball of yarn I was using on my 1907 sweater ran out so I stopped knitting the sleeve and finally redid the belt. Then I started the collar so that the body of the sweater will be finished. I have a few more rows left of that before I get back to my half-finished sleeve.
After I finished my stays last week, I started a 1780's robe a la piemontaise for the George Washington Ball in Williamsburg at the beginning of March. The petticoat is finished, and the bodice is cut. I'm using the pattern at the National Museum in Denmark and also going for the simpler trim of that one as opposed the the ornate Spanish ones that are still around. After three years of the same dress at that ball, I'm excited that I'll have a new one.
