I started knitting this

Shapely Tank using Gedifra Aragona. It’s a strange yarn, two variegated plies. One is cotton-ish, the other, some nylon/acrylic stuff. The cotton is very pale and pastel-ly, while the nylon is jewel toned colors. The cotton has only 4 colors, and the plastic has maybe 10 colors, and they repeat at different intervals, making a really nice confetti look to the fabric. My swatch didn’t shrink at all, which I guess makes sense if they are plying two materials together it would really suck if one shrank and the other didn’t, leaving a loopy crappy sweater. I am halfway up the front, having just finished the increases, and on my way to the short-row shaping. I am amazed at the simplicity of this pattern. No hand-holding here! She just says increase here, decrease here… no mention of what type of increase to use. In other words, think for yourself! I know, I know, a novel concept for most Americans. ahem.
