Well, I tinked the February baby sweater Friday night and started the whole thing over. Deciding how I was going to make it my own was the time-consuming part. (Pictures if I can get my card reader to work.) In the end I decided on the garter stitch yoke then stockinette for the body with a horizontal rib row evenly spaced.
I’m now ready for the sleeves on circular needles to avoid sewing any seams. I need to figure out how to do the underarm join so I don’t have any gaps.
Technical question: How do you avoid gaps when joining thumbs and/or fingers in gloves or mittens? It would be the same technique when joining the sleeves.
Please leave a comment on your favorite technique.
Mr. Aitch and I are getting ready to head out on the Harley for a little ride. We’ll be back by mid afternoon. Now if I could figure out a way to knit while on the back of the bike…
You know you beat me to that comment. I’ve often thought as we sit in traffic with bikes slipping past how cool that would be – and then think maybe not I couldn’t knit! ;D
