satanic knitted bodice, much of one arm done

So I made it a bit short because I was afraid of "growth" and like everyone else, I wish I'd made it slightly smaller...although I didn't short row the front at all and it does fit there pretty well.

The lace is murder on my hands, and the beading... I can't wait to be done.

I was hoping to finish today to wear it this weekend in Vancouver with my moms group, but sadly it didn't happen. Oh well.

The lace on the arm looks a bit higher than on the body; I decided to go ahead and do it even though it looked a teensy bit off, because the beading on the cuff will make it "sink." Even if it doesn't, that's ok... I am so never doing this again... this is all knit on 5's for the stockinette and 3's for the lace and purl ridges, and beading with DPN's on the sleeve (slippery ones) SUCKS BIG TIME HOOEY. So there.
