Remember this yarn? I bought a ton of it. Cheap. In three colors. I've had Schachenmayr Inspiration #68 for about 4 years, and always liked this top. In the original yarn, it cost about 80.00 to make. I'm working on the $7.76 version. That's a relief, you know? I can't do anything but have fun. There's no expensive yarn investment to screw up. I have an interesting yarn that suits an interesting pattern!

Interesting construction. I am guessing the sides are knitted long ways and the middle bit is knitted up . Are you going to do a bit of short rowing on the side bits?
Love it the $7.76 version. You go girl
Yes, the front and back panels are done first, then the sides are done. The shoulder seams are last. I think if I want waist shaping, I would put it in the center panel. I hadn't really thought about side shaping. Hmmm. Suzann, you are confusing the ditsy girl!
Sounds like you are really prepared for fun. Is this for you or one of your beneficiaries?
i saw yarn packs yesterday at Chez Casuelle that sold for over 300$ and if you needed size large (which is still too small) add another 300$ I like less then 8 dollars too----can't wait to see how it turns out!
That's soooo much money to spend, and I'd feel like crap if it didn't fit exactly.
Daryl, this is pour moi.
Yay Bets! Fun top for you...I like the way it varies froma solid block to variagated and back again. $7.76....why that's a nice price in my view! Looking forward to seeing it...Hey...where is YOUR Wren? I'll show you mine when you show me yours!
