a middle So, here's how the sleeve is progressing so far. As you can see, I'm changing the stripes on the sleeves to match the background stripes in the body (pic here). I just thought that the stripes in the picture made the sweater a bit too loud. I got the idea from the Yarn Barn's Pat K. in her version of the same sweater, which she made for her grandson. (I also got my yarn from her!) Coming Monday... the finished sleeve, warts and all. posted by alison at 11:48 pm | in

Hi Alison -- wow! That looks fantastic so far! How are you dealing with the stripes when working in the round? Are you doing something to make them meet up at the join, or are you just leaving them? I have stripes on my sweater too, and this is also the first time I've worked on circular needles, so I was a little surprised when I realized they don't quite meet up. Can't wait to see the whole sleeve - your tension looks great! Jennifer Posted by: Jennifer at October 27, 2002 1:48 PMWow. I love the way you're doing the sleeve. Beautiful work, Alison. :) Posted by: Darilyn at October 27, 2002 11:35 PM |
