It's done!

Yes, I have finished the halter top. I still have to block it, and as I am looking at it I'm getting increasingly nervous about how it will fit, but I am going to trust the author of the pattern that if I block it right, it will fit Julia fine. I've included a couple closeups so you can see a little more the design.





I was dismayed to learn, a couple days ago, that I actually have been purling wrong this whole time. Most of the time it doesn't matter (for ribbing and such), and most of my stockingette stitch is done in the round so I didn't need to worry about it. But for this tank top, I had to do some stockingette stitch NOT in the round, and found out it looks significantly different because I am indeed purling wrong. You can see that the stockingette stitch on the 'cups' is a little twisted (because I worked it flat), and that the stockingette stitch on the body of the halter top is much more even and pleasing.
