Notes

Main change: I knit the sleeve cuffs perpendicularly to mimic the neckline. CO 13 sts with waste Yarn, knit those and knit/slip the joining st. Finish with kitchener sts: totally invisible! The cardigan has no start and no end (except the bottom bind off). Magical!


Frogged my first invent-as-i-go attempt to knit Harvest and enjoy mindless knitting. Knitting second adult size to obtain L.

23 novembre: it’s coming along nicely, but my seasonal obsession with embroidery is slowing down the progress a little bit. :) (photo of one of the culprits.)

Sleeve: 56 quickly reduced to 54 to avoid underarm holes.
Start sleeves diminutions after 51 rows.

Yeah well embroidery and hats stole my attention. I am starting the second sleeve on the 10th of February, hoping that the notes here are right and I can replicate the first sleeve closely enough.

Haha! Don’t know what I did, but I am starting the second sleeve… and it is November the 6th!

Why oh HY did I not take at least minimal notes on my first sleeve cuff? I did a perpendicular garter stitch to mirror the collar, but I have to re-invent it now. Sigh

Aaaand second knitting FO of the day! I am ON FIRE.

The shoulders are not going to fit well. I will add a closure to help. I knew this was happening and will probably happen again with raglan shaping and my large, square shoulders. But sigh anyway.
