That ship...
I just read about that!
My hubby is a maritime archaeologist, so that's right up his alley.
I like the corsety thing...any ideas on how well it will fit?

And, I forgot in the above post, How cool you're from the Isle of Wight! We lived in Southampton for a year (2003)...I like the Isle...
The ship is very cool, it reminds me of when they raised tha Mary Rose off the coast of the Isle of Wight in the mid 80's. She was Henry 8th's flag ship back in the early 1500's http://www.maryrose.org/
The corset thing has been frogged. It is REALLY snug fitting with negative ease, so I've started it again in some more substantial yarn that will be less revealing :)
Being from the Isle of Wight has its pluses and minuses. Its wonderful to visit, but deathly boring growing up there (but I imagine a lot of people say this about where they grew up!) Oh, I know Southampton well... its one of the escape points from the island!
