The Fun Fur on the sleeves is what I had originally purchased to embellish this same style top that Tess got. After working up the top, I decided that the cream looked much too elegant on it's own to put the Fur with it, and Abby still wanted it on hers, so she chose a yarn to match one of the variegated tones in it. Her top is actually 95% done, there are just some tweaks she wanted me to make, like I added three plain yarn rows to the bottom, and she wants me to add another two with the Fun Fur to match the borders on the sleeves. I also modified the neckline again; instead of doing the diagonal split on the right hand side, I turned it into a sort of a scoop-neck deal. I also made the front a leeetle larger than the back, to give her some extra room across the bust and so that the underarm seams won't stretch as much as she's wearing it.
The plain yarn is Caron Simply Soft in Country Blue. The Fun Fur is Citrus. More photos forthcoming once I've added the extra rows to the bottom.
