02/21/11- decided to just add a few rows on the sleeves all in white. kind of hard to see from the pics. I need to go pick up another skein of white, though because I think this needs to be really really long with a giant white band at the bottom. Plus I need white for the button band.

So, I wish I did the sleeve join a little differently. The pattern has you break the yarn and add in a chain for under the arms. I see why since the pattern is in DC. But! I had decided to separate the top before the arm holes with a sc row (in pattern) of white. I could have just done a chain right through without breaking the yarn.

This yarn is very slippery and I worry about that chain coming loose.. oh well, lesson learned.
