With the help of the Knitting Help Video, I was able to learn how to process but my computer was so slow to download that video that I had plenty of time to try and try again and again how it could be, and to finally figure out the cast-on by myself... WOOHOOO!!! Am I good or what?!!
Anyway, it was late but I couldn't just go to sleep without starting the project and going on a little, right?
Well, when my eyes got really tired and I was not able to see clearly anymore, I decided to stop for good and to go to bed... I just took a look to what I had done and the it hits me!!! Right in the face!!!
Now, what is wrong with that picture?

I guess I was a little too excited and too sure of myself because I didn't take time to check what I was doing... So, I didn't see that I had... A TWIST!!!
A good lesson of humility, isn't it? LOL
The morning after, I took a photo of the disaster before RIPP! RIPP IT! RIPP IT! ... and then I started all over.
And this time, it was much better! I even thought about leaving a long tail of pattern yarn as intructed in the pattern to stitch down the picot neck edging.
My mistake ended up to be a bad for a good! :)
I made the increases and armholes without trouble and I working now on the bust part... I cannot wait to try it on and to make sure that this close-fitting garment is going to fit me at least!
BTW, knitting with the Knit Picks Shine yarn is a real pleasure! :)
