Something Snuggly for a Sunday

[x-posted at Two Pointy Sticks]

The Midnight Knitting project this week is finally finished, just in time to wear outside on this chilly morning. Here it is, a little cashmere heathered baseball tee - great for lounging in on any day ending in "-day"!





For this size (bust size 36), I used 4 skeins of Mont Blanc in Rosamund, and 3 skeins of Mont Blanc in Tobacco.

In the end it turned out to be only a very little bit this-season's-Balenciaga, about 2.6% (the single arm stripes), and 97.4% Lorelai Gilmore. Props to the costume designer for that show, because apart from the general wit of the writing, I want - no, NEED - to have a closet full of Lorelai's clothes. Simple and very everyday, but with a little twist in either color, shaping, texture, or print. Is anyone here a fan? Remember the Knit or Die! t-shirt?

Kitschy!Me has decided that I really really need one of these.
