"Configuration" by M. Welch

 How to keep track of crocheting nearly 3 miles of tinned silver thread

and hundreds of freshwater pearls?

An abacus in the bodice takes care of that. 

Not only is it a gown that catches light like a freshly shed snakeskin - it also 

provides endless fun for calculating tips or story problems on the go.
