I'm not sure how this knit set was intended to be worn. It is too sheer (and scratchy) to wear alone, yet looks strange with a long sleeved shirt and slip beneath. Maybe a similarly coloured full slip would work in warmer weather, but the texture of the fabric on my skin would be maddening. I always liked black and blue together, so that's the direction I went.
The top may have accomplished the impossible in making me appear flat-chested. That's a first for me. Do you like the afghan? My mother made it in the 60's.
