Since I last posted, I actually finished something! It was my Maderia tank top, which turned out pretty well. Here it is…

As you can see from the picture, I modified it a bit to add some short sleeves. As written, the arm holes went down kind of far, and there was quite a bit of bra showing, so I added in a bit of sleeve which took care of the problem. Also, I had most of a skein of the yarn left when I was done, which I was pretty sure I’m not going to use for anything else. The yarn I used was Berroco Linus, which has been discontinued. It is a loosely woven ribbon of cotton, linen and a bunch of other stuff. It has a nice drape, but it was kind of snaggy to knit. They do have a bunch left in the www.yarn.com closeout section, so if you’re interested to try it, now is your time!
So that’s one thing done, and roughly a million more to go!
