So I started the knit panties from the Mon Petit Chou patten off knitty. These are knit with a cotton/elastic yarn -- either Cascade Fixation or elann.com Esprit, not sure what others exist.
So far so good -- the elastic yarn is hard to knit with because I am constantly concerned about the tension. I am sure I have it too tight all the time, so of course by the end of it I will have blue whale size panties because I kept my gauge too loose.
I am using the Esprit in Wine colorway. These are for the upcoming "paddlecon" as Ed calls it. Not for me to wear -- for Kel.
Other things I want to make are these fishnets also from the knitty site and some "opera gloves" which have lacing up the back. I doubt I will finish before Thunder since I have been a lame non-finisher of things lately.
I have a dishcloth, two scarves, a amigurumi monkey, an amigurumi turtle, an amigurumi ninja, and a pair of socks to finish. In addition to these new panties.
