whoa woe

this gorgeous gifted silk knit.i thought i had enough for my shroud, but was proven wrong.

being extra careful as knits require i traced the top pattern in whole so that it could be cut in one piece. i thought that would also be a fabric saver, but alas no.






















the skirt pieces;  2 pairs for the top part and two pairs for the bottom of the skirt. not enough for the 4 bottom pieces   (╯︵╰,)
have thought of two solutions

• either knit a black piece myself and do a one to one on both the front and back or do the whole top or bottom with the knit. 
• or hunt for a plain black knit fabric.

still have to decide. meanwhile the weaving proceeds.
