Soleil is finished

I actually finished the soleil tank over a week ahead of time, before the trip to Toronto. It's very comfy, but I had to block the heck out of the armholes to make them stay flat. I also think next time I'll make the armholes a little smaller, to fit my top better. I love the feel of the yarn, BUT after wearing it in the city, with my backpack purse rubbing against my back, I've noticed that this yarn.. the Jo Sharpe Soho Summer, had some of its plys 'worm' out , so there are some very thin loops sticking out where I had any friction against the fabric. I managed to pull some of them back into the yarn by manipulating the fabric after washing.. but it was a little disappointing to see this.
Otherwise, I love it.. and yeah, I love the olive green color. I have another bag in ivory.. but I haven't decided what to make with that yet.
