starting one more sweater before the end of the year!<\/p>\n
Cast on provisionally a row under the arm division. (next time, do several rows first, it would help with stability for the arm holes.)<\/p>\n
Work upward!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
finished fronts and back and 3 needle bind off. this took almost all of the first skein.<\/p>\n
reconnecting yarn to work downward for another 19\u201d, plus whatever length I want to add to make it not cropped, plus a little longer twisted ribbing separates by a garter ridge, piece of cake \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
on the last day of 2016, I made it about 7\u201d because of knitting on New Years Eve! another 1 1\/2\u201d today on a chat and playing games. EXCELLENT.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
working on sleeves! with ribbed edging, even though the rest of the sweater has garter edging (bottom and neck).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
picked up too few stitches for the second sleeve, by about six (surprise, that\u2019s how many decreases I did, I musta based my number on the bind off not the pick up!). knit the entire sleeve before I realized. Ripped out and reknit the sleeve the following day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
fairly aggressively blocked, but didn\u2019t use blocking wires or pins, just pulled it out widthwise to match the 68\u201d width for my size.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
