#21 A Spanner in the Works for 52 in 2021 challenge
I overheard the pizza guy telling Daisy that she "always looks so nice", and that it was "a pleasure to be of service to such a beautiful lady". I do believe that was just what she needed to break her out of the doldrums. The look on her face says it all. 😊💗💗
...is sometimes necessary so that I look my best! These boots sometimes start to sag after a bit of activity, so I have to make adjustments!
I'm wearing another one of my May shopping binge minidresses- this one from greatglam.com. Its a fabulous strapless aqua & silver minidress that I've matched up with my super shiny Platino Clean Cut pantyhose from shapings.com and my silver knee boots from electriqueboutique.com. I hope you like my ensemble!

Centurion Tank (1952-1979) - Part of the planned Americanization of Canadian weapons and equipment after the Second World War centred on finding a new medium tank to replace the fleet of Shermans that had been left in The Netherlands. Canada was using a mixture of Achilles tank destroyers, M4A2 HVSS 76(W) Shermans, Grizzlies, and Stuart light tanks and Staghound armoured cars for training. Experience in the Korean War showed a need for better tanks than the Americans had on inventory; even the new Patton tank was at that time having a troubled production history. In Korea, however, the fire control system and gun of the Centurion proved its worth, and Canada took delivery of 274 Mark 3 Centurions in 1952 and 1953.
The first 21 Centurions reached the Royal Canadian Dragoons in Germany in March 1952 and serving with Canada's NATO forces there. No Canadian Centurions made it to Korea, and the tanks were used in Canada and Europe through the 1960s and into the 1970s. The new tank was well liked, having a .50 calibre ranging gun in the turret to assist in determining the range to main gun targets. The sophisticated optics and ammunition types, however, provided a challenge to new gunners as each of the different ammunition types (sabot, High Explosive Squash Head (HESH), smoke and canister) all had differing muzzle velocities. The .30 and .50 calibre guns fired rounds on about the same trajectory as the HESH round; other rounds had to have the main gun adjusted according to muzzle velocity of the ammunition, as well as range, in order to ensure a hit on the target.
The Centurion Mark 3 was quickly upgraded into a variety of configurations.

Found an old review of the scanner (2007) and this adjustment to the negative carrier was referred to. I am not sure it made a big difference but it did not do any worse. A wet print would be the best but.....
her wig was still too close in color to her skin tone, so the colors were always so flat for me, so i added some hot pinks and oranges into her dirty blond, and now the colors are seperating more. I think I may want a whole new wig for her, but for now this is starting to work:)
Problems faced by all girls of the sixties: sit pretty, be sexy but classy and don`t show your thighs when you move... There was always a garter to reattach, a seam to straighten up, a stocking top to hide. Caution was required when sitting, bending or squatting.
PS Please if you do not want your picture to appear here, tell me and I’ll remove it
these adjusters will level the table so it wont rock on uneven floors, like concrete, and the felt button keeps the floor from being scratched. easy to drag the table across the floor for cleaning.

This set of three photos was taken at the site of an abandoned textile mill. I used a b/w infrared filter and Topaz Adjust 5 toning.
37025 waits to depart Preston 1O16 12:30 Glasgow Central to Poole which it was to work to just south of Stockport. This was the infamous occasion where the guard asked the passengers if anyone had an “adjustable spanner” as the driver was trying to repair the engine. This was also the final time that 37025 would work a passenger train as an EWS engine but has since been preserved by the Scottish Thirty-Seven Group. 24th February 1999.
Inspiration for Christine came from two things: the picot-edging in Ysolda Teague's Lace-Up Opera Gloves and my personal obsession with Phantom of the Opera and clothing from the Victorian Era. I had wanted a corset for a long time, but I didn't want to pay the hundreds of dollars a custom-sewn corset might cost. I thought- why not knit one?
It is very easy to adjust the waist circumference of the corset by adding or subtracting rows from the garter stitch back. The garter stitch, when sideways, acts as a ribbing/boning for the corset.
Note: This is designed as an underbust corset; therefore, there is no bust shaping. However, if you want to wear it as an overbust corset, the garter stitch back and lacing should make it adjustable enough to fit any way you like! :)
******************
Materials:
-1 skein Caron Simply Soft Eco (249yd/288m per 5 oz. skein)
-Size US 8 straight needles
-2 removable stitch markers (or safety pins)
-Sturdy 7/8 in ribbon, approx. 6 yards
Pattern:
*Front Panels*
[Front half A]
CO 41 sts.
1. K 2 rows in stockinette st.
2. Next row: K2, *yo, k2tog, rep from *
3. Sl 1, p to end.
4. Knit across row, picking up CO sts and knitting them together with
each live stitch. This creates the picot edging.
5. Sl 1, p to end.
6. Next row: [For front half A] *K2, k2tog, you, repeat from * to last 5 sts, k5. On last st, pm. This marks the BOTTOM of the corset, where the laces will tie in a bow.
7. Sl 1, p to end.
Slipping the first st of every row, continue in stockinette stitch until piece measures 4 in. End with the wrong (purl) side facing you. DO NOT BIND OFF!!! Place live sts from front half A on a spare size 8 needle, or waste yarn.
[Front half B]
Steps 1-5, knit as for front half A. For front half B:
6. Knit this row in reverse from what you knit for front half A: K5, *you, k2tog, k2, repeat from * This will make the markers both on the bottom when the corset is assembled.
Continue as for front half A until piece measures 4 in. Ending with the wrong side, keep stitches on needles and continue on to back (garter stitch).
*Back*
Continuing from front half B:
Knit even in garter stitch for 14 inches (or however wide you want your corset to be, minus 8 inches. Make it smaller than you think it should be, as the laces make it very adjustable, as does the garter stitch, and it’s meant to fit snugly!).
[Attaching front half A]
Using the Kitchener stitch, attach front half A, invisibly, to the corset body. Make sure that the stitch markers on the front panels are both on the BOTTOM.
*Finishing*
Weave in all ends. Using ribbon, lace up the corset so that the ribbon ties in a bow at the bottom.
Tada!! You now have your very own custom-made corset! Now go out and flaunt your Victorian fashion! :-) :-) :-)
