Yes, I'm hovering here this morning

Anyway, I did include the ribbing on the tanks, I just used the interlock since it's pretty stretchy. for the arms I turned under about 1/2" I'd say, having the twin needle straddle the edge IYKWIM. I hemmed them before serging the side seams, which makes them a bit less wavy/wonky I think.

Yes, if you picture the underside with the raw edge of the hem, then I try to have the raw edge as close to the left needle as I can. That's just because I'm lazy and don't want to trim

Here's a pic of the dye job. I think it came out pretty nicely!

Ohhhh, I love the dye job! I just cut some of that surfing knit today to dye brilliant blue. Hope mine comes out as nicely.

The tanks look great too, BTW.
