After putting it on hold for a little while, I found myself being very enthusiastic about finishing it. It really looked gorgeous while blocking, and I was so sure I was going to look smokin\u2019 hot wearing it, so I couldn\u2019t finish the I-cord to tie it up in the back fast enough. It is such a shame that something that looks so good in the pictures is totally unwearable. There is something really awkward about the final shape, something just isn\u2019t right so nothing stays in place where it should. It might have to do the neckline that is very, very wide, and that this affects the movement of the whole garment. I have to admit that I was warned, but chose to ignore all the negative comments that I found on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/patterns\/library\/giselle\/people\">Ravelry<\/a> regarding this project. Next time I start on such a big (and expensive) project I\u2019ll make sure to pick a pattern with loads of positive response. Well, done is done, over to something else&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><em>Giselle er ferdig! Etter \u00e5 lagt prosjektet til side for en stund, ble jeg plutselig veldig ivrig p\u00e5 \u00e5 f\u00e5 det ferdig. Det s\u00e5 virkelig lekkert ut da jeg la plagget ut til blokking, og jeg var s\u00e5 sikker p\u00e5 at jeg kom til \u00e5 se s\u00e5 vannvittig bra ut med det p\u00e5, at jeg kunne ikke fort nok f\u00e5 gjort ferdig b\u00e5ndet som knytes bak. Det er bare s\u00e5 synd at noe som ser s\u00e5 fint ut p\u00e5 bildene er totalt umulig \u00e5 ha p\u00e5 seg i virkeligheten. Det er noe ordentlig rart med den endelige fasongen, noe er rett og slett ikke helt riktig s\u00e5 ingenting holder seg p\u00e5 plass der det skal v\u00e6re. Det kan ha noe med den veldig vide utringinga ved skuldrene \u00e5 gj\u00f8re, og at dette p\u00e5virker hvordan plagget b\u00e6res av kroppen. Jeg m\u00e5 innr\u00f8mme at jeg ble advart p\u00e5 forh\u00e5nd, men valgte \u00e5 overse alle de negative kommentarene jeg fant p\u00e5 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/patterns\/library\/giselle\/people\">Ravelry<\/a> om dette prosjektet. Neste gang jeg g\u00e5r i gang med noe s\u00e5 stort (og s\u00e5 dyrt) skal jeg velge ut et m\u00f8nster som har tonnevis av positive tilbakemeldinger.
