Alison's spring fling tank-Take 1

GGH Esprit is a great yarn to work with and coupled with a great pattern you betta just watch out.

I am working on Alison's spring fling tank and it is so well written that you just breeze right through it.

The first ball was gone before I could get up for a break.

Doesn't it look yummy soft.

And here is the Fluffy Tank -Take 1.

And why am I not sporting it? Well due to my own error, I e-cast on for the straps waaay to tight which I have done on previous projects in the past (ughh!). Alison actually suggested two ways to cast on and I should have opted for the knit on which I will have to do after I rip back a bit. I will just cast on with a size larger than I knit the body of the tank.

It fits, but is tight at the armhole and I never imagined it would feel sooo soft against your skin. I can't wait to wear it!

Sweet! That's a great color. I LOVE this yarn, used it for a baby hat a little while ago. It actually rips much more easily than you'd think, probably because it's a little slippery. You gotta post pix of it on, once it's done!
