06-16-2012 Finished stitching! Need to block, seam and finish. Used stitch markers to hold shoulder seams and tried it on. It is definitely smaller than I am at this time but I should shrink into it. Blocking should help relax the wool a bit as well. I think I will put the 2 ties at the under bust band instead of one at the band and one at the top so that when tied there won’t be a huge gap. Then I can always move the ties in the future or add a pretty clasp.

PS. I absolutely loved working with this yarn. No knots and one long long long strand. (If there were knots they were very well hidden/blended.) Only ends are the ones that I cut.
