Hot off the hook - the 30th Street Station Skirt, designed by Kathy Merrick, Interweave Crochet, Spring 2008. I used Knit Picks CotLin for the skirt and some LusterSheen I found in my stash for the faux slip. This was pretty easy to do once you get into the rhythm of the post stitches, and worked up quickly.
Now for the subject in the title - to line, or not to line. If I am going to wear this skirt, I need something underneath. Sorry, but I don't want my underwear showing through. I have lined my crochet and knit items before, but it was always something that didn't need to have a lot of stretch. This is a pullover skirt and will need that stretch. Is it worth it to find a way to line, or should I just leave it alone and go out an buy a slip? Stay tuned......
What's next? Nothing for now. I am leaving for a cheer camp Monday, and then surgery on Friday. But waiting is a knitted Noah's Ark toddler sweater for my youngest grandson. Never fear, I do have my grab and go bag that has a working scarf out of Lion Brand Homespun yarn.
