feeling steeky

I cut the first armhole steek yesterday. I didn't have time during the boys' naptime to get started on the second one. But perhaps that's best. I'm much more nervous about these armhole steeks than I was about the neck steeks. Now I have the opportunity to put this steek to the 'project bag' test like I did those. Then again, perhaps I should try to do the steeks as quickly as possible so that I can sew in the sleeves and cover them up as soon as I can. What steeks? Cutting? Where? I don't know anything about that. Oh, ignorance is bliss.

Great job on the steeks Alison. I just realized that the "bugs" were cars and not bugs! Oh well! I must not be very observant. I also love the cardigan from Phildar you are working on. I love the chartreuse(?) color especailly. Hoping to make a felted bag with about those same colors. Love your blog!

Alison..I've never done the steek thang before and I'm a bit nervous about it. Thanks for posting your experiences and pictures. You are giving me courage as I more forward with Rosecalie.
