I had planned a "reference" to the lattice work below and crossed 8 stitches before I started decreasing for the neckline, then I picked up stitches along the neckline and knitted an I-cord (attached by SSK the last st with a picked up st). I like how it looks now though I imagined it a bit different when I had the idea.
YES, I am experiencing the effects of knitting - as an outlet for my creativity, my obsession with colour and my love for beautiful yarns. NO, not in a negative way, but as in the German word "stricken", i.e. knitting!

Getting there
Yesterday I worked all afternoon on the TTT with a twist. I am done with knitting, I just have to sew it together. My neckline idea turned out to be a hell of a job, literally speaking, I had to work it over three times until I was satisfied with the outcome.

Since Kajin is more enthusiastic about my neckline than I am I must have done something right. :) Thanks!!
