Notes

I finally got my kit from White Lies Designs and I am starting to knit! Yay! My first knitted bra.

This is boring. I guess it’s hibernating for now.

I finally finished all the knitting and the pieces are blocking. ON TO the SEWING MACHINE!

I ironed on the fusible interfacing included in my kit.

Now I am going over to Brittany’s house to use her sewing machine and MAKE MY BRA!

I’M DONE!!! I’M DONE!!! I’M DONE!!
It works! (It doesn’t fit, it acts like a giant push-up bra) but it works! I’ll never make another bra again!

I don’t recommend this pattern to anyone! Ye be warned!

Special thanks to Julia for modeling the bra! You look great, Julia!

By the way, I added decorative ribbon along the bottom to cover the strange shaping, and some lacy ribbon along the top for more decoration and coverage. I like it!
