Now that I have time to work on Samantha again (my Spring term classes are FINISHED), I’m loving how quickly it knits up. The back skirt and bodice seemed to take a long time, but this newly finished front right piece is zipping right along. I think I spent about four days of off-and-on knitting getting this one done.

I’m still a little iffy on the shaping, and I had to frog every single buttonhole row, but I still love the pattern. It’s very sweet and cute without being too cloying.

Last night I cast on and began the front left piece. Once it’s done, I just have the piecing and sleeves to do!
