Cool tank for hot days

My beautiful Princess is finally wearing her ice blue Cotton Viscose tank top - I hope it was worth the wait! It definitely fits her, especially after I ripped the neck strap back quite a few inches. The bottom pictures shows how uneven the fabric came out when I picked up this project after exactely one year... the difference between last summers even and nice gauge and this summers crazy-ugly gauge is obvious, but luckily the soak in a mild detergent DID even it out enough for me to be willing to let it pass as "good enough"... Above; after a good soak and flat drying. Below; barely off the needles in all its misery - and below; the faithful dummy wearing the tank pre-soaking and with adult length neck strap. The difference between 2009 gauge and 2010 gauge was too much for me to bear...

Utrolig hva litt vann kan avstedkomme! Ble mye bedre etter vask!
En tanke å ha i hodet når man tar fatt på UFOer...
