It's a very flattering pattern, I find, and I'm a huge fan of not having to sew anything together at the end. Cotton, however, might not have been the best fiber choice. It stretches a lot, and doesn't bounce back like a lot of animal fibers do. This isn't a big deal for the top itself, but the armwarmers have become too loose at the top and so are constantly falling down. I thought maybe I could knit a few rows of 2x2 ribbing at the top, and many people suggested I sew in some elastic thread, but the idea I like best is...
... garters! It gives it a very cyberpunk kind of look and I think I like it.
Cute!
