Akoya and a Slip Top

Two things I’ve been working on!

Akoya. FINALLY STARTED THIS SUCKER. Smooth sailing so far and it’s working up quickly.

I’m using the Rowan Felted Tweed I picked up at Liberty a few months ago and it’s great to work with. My only worry is that it will pill like crazy with all the loose fibers.

Slip top. I started it today and will have it finished by tomorrow. I put a pleat under the bust for picture purposes but the finished top will have gathers there. A solid black will cover the torso + tummy and end at the hip.

I hope those who celebrate will have a happy happy Halloween! I don’t participate in this Holiday (yeah, I’m the person that turns their lights off and pretends no one’s home) so will most likely be knitting with a Tim Burton movie in the background.  :)
