I started my razor cami this weekend while knitting with Rhi. I purchased some gorgeous bamboo yarn from the black lamb at the frolic the previous weekend with this project specifically in mind but wasn’t ready to trust myself enough! (also, it wasn’t wound and I was anxious.. hehe!) I had some risata yarn from knitpicks and so I decided to try it out. I was a concerned as I finished the ribbing that it wasn’t going to fit but I put some stitches on waste yarn Sunday morning so I could try it on. I’m pretty confident it will be ok. The Risata is really quite stretchy (which won’t help with gauging size for the bamboo but what can ya do?)
The ribbing seemed to take forever… the lace part on the other hand, while not “quick” (i am a slow knitter) seemed to go a lot faster! Here’s where I got to by the end of Sunday…
The lace part is really simple and probably doesn’t warrant the stitch markers but a) I don’t trust my lace knitting abilities and b) I was knitting on Sunday at my parents and there were lots of distractions so I wanted to be safe!
I’m so excited to finish this! It will be my first non sock clothing
I’m a little worried that I’m going to run out of yarn so I might have to check in with knit picks and see if they have an extra ball in the same lot..

It looks awesome!!! Love the colour, too
WOOHOO!
I’ve never used the risata yarn from knitpicks, so I’m really interested to see what your review is once you’ve got your razor cami all finished! That colour you chose is awesome, so gorgeous for summer.
