The Garment has really taken on a personality of its own. Like Stephen Maturin, it is polite and pleasant company but also like Stephen, it often seems to have secret missions of its own. It leaves my lap of its own volition and loves to tangle the three working balls of wool no matter how much I work at keeping them all separate. It is also now taller than I am which is the first time I have made anything so large. The two blankets I knit years and years ago were only 5' and 6' long, respectively. Here is The Garment's upper sections being measured from the waistband up. I pinned the back and fronts together from the underarms up and then pinned the whole upper part to the bed. Also on view are some of the many ends which will have to be woven in when the knitting is finished.

This looks like such a complicated project. I do really want to make a pair and have been collecting some soft vintage undergarment yarns for the attempt, so I've been closely following your progress!
