The Knitty surprises are up, rendering the entire site slow as molasses kept inside the arctic chambers of my mother-in-law's heart ...

but I really, really want to make this skirt. (Not in those colours, mind. In a nice purple and blue combo.)

The rating spooks me a little, but it might be okay ... it appears to be mostly short-rows (although I'm uncertain about the three-needle-bind off ... never done that before.)

Too many projects, not enough TIME, dude. I've got to finish a few things to justify starting something else ...

I love that icon. I really really do.

Isn't it great? If you want to steal it, just credit ... whoever made the thing, which I know is in my icon comments.

[tattermuffin.livejournal.com]

oooh! Hurray for pre-approved stealage! Hee!

I'll definitely give credit. Thanks! :)

I fear that skirt. An A line is flattering, but a U-line?

[phinnia.livejournal.com]

I think it's supposed to look like petals? Something like that.

I think so too, but the girl wearing it is about a size 8 and it even makes her hips look big, so I was thinking,..cute skirt, but the bottom?

[phinnia.livejournal.com]

I wonder how one could go about changing the bottom? I like the pattern and the idea, but you make a very good point.

I think if you just didn't decrease as much for the bottom it would be cute! What if it was shaped like

So still petally, but straight (not out and then in like a weird bubble).

Oooh, shiny. :-D I know what you mean, I have a skirt like that.
