Weekly Progress Report
Oct. 24th, 2018 05:38 amNo pictures today, but I do try to post once a week so here's an update.
1. Ivory wool 1948 cardigan: I finished knitting the back and cast on the first sleeve. I'm about halfway through the ribbing at the wrist.
2. 1895 tatted garters: I just have five rings and six chains left to finish the tatting. I'm trying to do two rings a day so I should finish it up at the end of the week.
3. 1887 ball gown: Other than boning, the polonaise is wearable. It still needs trim, but I could conceivably wear it without. The underskirt still needs to have darts and a waistband, but otherwise it's finished. The ball isn't for a month so no rush.
4. Armistice Day centennial dress: I kind of put the 1887 dress on hold to make a 1918 dress for the centennial of Armistice Day. It's coming along well, though I need to get buttons for it and ribbon for a waistband.
I'm having a Hallowe'en party on Saturday, and I still haven't decided what to wear. I'm leaning toward either the robe a la piemontaise or the green late 1860's dress.
