The summer KAL is well under way over at luvinthemommyhood blog. My pattern initially called for knitting the body, then the sleeves. But since I am short on yarn and not exactly sure how I want to do the sleeves so I did a provisional cast on. And I am so glad that I did, because my next step is to begin the lovely detail!!! How exciting.
I never knew a sweater could come together so quickly, but I'm guessing that beautiful yarn and a great pattern is the recipe for a quick knit. All in all I am really excited to wear this.....I'm even contemplating on holding off starting the Shawl Mystery KAL just so I can get it done.....But we'll see....once the first clue comes out I'm probably gonna cave and start that too. haha
But my question to you.......
should I knit the sleeves short with a little pleat.....or maybe a tear drop and a little button??
what are you thoughts??
Oooh I looks so pretty! I'm definitely going to have to whip this up soon!
ReplyDeleteAs for the sleeve...um, any option that has a button and I'm sold ;)
it is a really great knit....I'm enjoying it so much!!!!
DeletePleats would be super cute.
ReplyDeleteI think I agree.....so I"m gonna need your help....I've never done these sleeves before....so if you have any suggestions on how to do it I would love to hear it.
DeleteI agree....I like the idea of a little pleat too! Great job!
ReplyDeletethanks, that was my first choice....now to find those oak buttons.
