This time I'm using Endless Summer's Luna and at first I wasn't sure it was going to be stretchy enough, but now I'm liking it quite a bit. I'm a bit further now than I was when I took this picture earlier today and am now below the bust...
As I said, I'm not sure if I did my mid-row cast on correctly, but all I know is that somehow I managed to get another 20 stitches onto the right needle and then just kept knitting around... Then when I came back around to the cast on stitches, I just knit them as usual. Have I done irreparable damage???

Oh, goodness! I doubt you did anything wrong. I just put that in the pattern because, IMO, it came out looking quite neat. On the Tivoli I used the twisted loop (I think sometimes called backward loop) CO, and it worked just fine. It's in your armpit, no one will inspect :) :).
Hey! Looks great so far! I might have to pick up some Luna for a camisole I want to make.
Kathy -- I haven't looked ahead through the pattern, but will I be doing any kind of "trim" on that part of the arm pit? I also don't remember seeing anything in the pattern about the mid-row cast on like what you described to Otter before... did I miss that somewhere?
Red Dog... I haven't blocked at all and I don't think the provisional cast on made a difference regarding the curling. I think the reason it looks fairly straight in the pic is because it's "on" the mannequin and is being pulled straight. Yours will probably be fine once you put it on. What size needle are you using? I used a size 4.
i love your model! i think i may have my husband make a bust like that for me :) lookin' good! love the smooth look of that luna yarn!
