Have I told you how much I am enjoying Madeleine? Marta, it's a great pattern!
This is the front:

This piece is so bouncy looking. It's wonderful knitting. Mindless P2,K2 ribbing for 12 rows, then I get a cable repeat.
With this tank, for the first time ever, I have left myself a long enough tail to use for seaming. I find the big ball of yarn hanging off of the end to be an annoyance, but I wonder if it will make seaming any more efficient. I'll let you know...
There's not much else to say. Time to get back to the knitting.

About that long-tail ball, I like to pin the ball to the knitting once there's enough there to pin to. It seems to pull less when it's attached to the garment.
I am so proud! One of my favourite knitters/knitbloggers is knitting up MY pattern! Yuuuupieee!
I always leave a long tail when I cast on and use it for seaming. And yes, I roll up the end, tie it with a rubber band and pin it to the knitting too.
All these lovely tank pictures are getting to me...and I've sworn them off!
I'm another fan of leaving a long tail for seaming (and pinning it up with a safety pin or small stitch holder).
That is really pretty. Can't wait to see more progress.
