Notes

May 9, 2011: Wore it to prom and it held up :)

May 4, 2011: Done.

May 1, 2011: Finished all the knitting! Six days till prom. I have to sew the hooks and eyes and the stray ends, but then it’ll be done. Those fasteners are evil, though…

Aug. 20, 2010: Officially started. I’m knitting the left front -- stockinette on size 2 needles.

Oh my gosh, what am I doing? This will be brain-taxing, mind-numbing, grueling, and fun (maybe). Needs to be done by May 2011. I have 9 skeins of this yarn, plus another of a different dye lot.
