Jennifer Young said... Deepika, your top looks beautiful. Where do you buy the foldover elastic and what width do you use? Also -- do you use this neckline finish on other LH tops as well? Thanks so much for reviewing this! 12/19/07 2:18 PM
diane s said... I recently bought this pattern from PR, I was thinking of binding the neck, then sewing up the center front seam. Is that how you did it? 12/19/07 2:43 PM
JudiBee2 said... That came out perfectly. You really did a good job. 12/19/07 3:08 PM
Deepika said... Jennifer I use Foldover elastic on a lot of my tops. Once you get the hang of it, it's such a quick and easy finish. I've bought FOE from Kathy's and from Daytona Trimming in NYC. I generally use a 1".
Diane, I should have done it that way, but instead I bound it after the top was sewn together. I am not too happy with the little dimple in the front, but yes, if I were to make this again and I will, I will do it the way you described. 12/19/07 3:09 PM

Deepika said... How could I forget... The mittens were a gift from Karin. I really do love them. I could never knit like her. 12/19/07 6:48 PM
