I Don't Need No Stinking Gauge

said the woman who spent the morning ripping out all last night's work.

*Note to self* When making wearables..gauge is the most important thing!

I am working on a summer top for a CAL over at Fiber Freaks. I am making the tank on the cover and using the cotton yarn Pearlin sent me last month, it is a coraly color that screams summer to me. It actually said very nicely to me "Make me a tanktop" and I cannot deny yarn when it speaks to me.
