lelah got me on my knees

I've been trying to finish the Lelah top, but that takes a while. I don't pick it up unless I can concentrate on it, take a little bit to get into it. It's coming along slower than I would like but it's my first adult size garment. I'm still not completely confident that it's going to fit the way I want it. I have a feeling there's going to be some trial and error involved when I get to the bust line. I don't really know how to do shaping or shoulder straps. Should be a learning experience I won't soon forget.
