(Possibly) In the Queue Wednesday

When I started weaving about a year ago, my dream was to someday sew clothes for myself with fabric that I had handwoven.

With only one more set of Christmas towels left to go, I was browsing the internet recently for new projects and came across a "kit" to weave and then sew this top:

It is made from a Bamboo fine weight yarn and comes in many different colors. I'm still waiting on some details like how big the loom has to be (mine isn't actually very big, as looms go).

The sewing itself looks pretty easy - there's not much shape to the top. But the woven lace pattern seems classy and beautiful!

What do you think? If my loom is big enough, should I give it a try?
