Lisa's #NeoVictorianBlouse (v1.1 ) is done! This figured silk chiffon that she found in Paris is a delight to behold but *the* single most challenging silk that I have ever encountered. I do not recommend it for a good #sewing time. #fashion #ElfkinCouture

And here's the originals they're based on.

The neckline gathers on Lisa’s #NeoVictorianBlouse have been faffed to within an inch of my sanity, and I’m finally satisfied with them. All that’s left on her is to re-attach the collar and level the hem. #sewing #fashion #ElfkinCouture

Last for this week is the scarf I knit last week for my grandma's birthday this week, a wave stitch made from paired decreases and yarn overs in three ball of Loops & Threads Skyscape yarn. The colors were picked by the sister recipients of the capybara keychains from above. 🧶 (yarn ball emoji)

Guess whose idol WIP is back on the dressform 😎

Eleni and I are carrying on with Lisa’s #NeoVictorianBlouse. Sleeves are basted on and the gathering at the caps is looking nice and even. #sewing #ElfkinCouture

An effort was made.

I’ve been relying on Headless Eleni (adjustable dressform) as I finish Lisa’s #NeoVictorianBlouse. What an enlightening experience! Like going from just being able to test code in a debugger to having an actual staging environment. My only regret is that I waited so long to acquire it. #sewing

Lisa’s #NeoVictorianBlouse is back for its final stitch up (for real this time). Replacing the back panels did the trick. Eleni and I are now confirming that the shoulder gathers are the best they can be before going to the #sewing machine. #fashion #ElfkinCouture
