Progress

I finished knitting the third panel of my 1892 knitted petticoat this afternoon. That gives me five more panels to go at most. I'm not exactly sure how big a hem circumference I need. One later in the book calls for about 84" so I'm sure I don't need something bigger than that. Each panel is about 10" wide so I'm thinking I'll need either seven or eight.

I'm also making speedy progress on a 1940's playsuit. I just need buttons and buttonholes to finish the bodice and skirt, but the shorts haven't even been started. I meant to go to the store today to buy more fabric and buttons (this is not the originally planned project for this fabric), but I had a daughter stay home from school sick so we weren't going to run any errands, even though she was feeling fine after a couple of hours.
