X-Back Halter Sweater

This hand knit halter is teal with white criss cross straps in the back with a button close neckline that wraps the throat and fastens in the back.

The lurex piece is a skirt that works with it, silver lurex threads are enchanting with the white criss-cross back. Size 10 US standard knitting needles and an H crochet hook for the simple chain criss cross strap that ties in the center back.

The top is knit by creating a 2/3 waist ribbing with a folded over edge for the chain tie and a bib front shaped like a wide mouth funnel, add the under arm edges an extra tab is created on both sides for the back chain string to lace through two times, one time to run through the loop tabs and the bottom folded flaps and one time straight across the back as a bra would.

                                                   -AN OPINION-

It is hard to choose whether to go down in history letting the American black population hold onto their comrade in brotherhood and win another term or let his ever so handsome opponent do so, another great looking guy to watch attempt to oversee mostly the country's budget. You'll definitely need a list of pros and cons, but you will probably have to do a lot of reading on your own as I see the election is coming across like a beauty pageant. And, Obama has cheated with Michelle, she is a little hard to outshine in the looks department. Or, maybe they are vying for the President of the Student Council, either of these candidates appear to be younger than they are. I, myself, don't mind having something to look at with all the levels of government negotiating among themselves, how can the President go that far wrong? Of course that is a very bad attitude, it is our duty as citizens and residents to weigh out the advantages of electing any given candidate.

I've always pondered that even Democracies are a touch of a decorated Monarchy, and I don't mind I like glitter, I wish they were allowed two costumes like in some South American, African and European countries. Oh, yes or Asian, or, anywhere else a royal line carries on. Who are you going to choose, I am a little torn?
