I didn’t do my fronts, just my sleeves and back, but comparing what I have finished to what it should look like is frightening.

I guess I can just rip out and knit a few extra inches to the sleeves.

Pretty color blue.

I just subdivide the edge of each piece into sections with removable stitch holders (fold each section in half, and then again, etc.) to keep things even, and then blindly sew away. Your pieces look beautiful; that’s a sweater I may have to tackle.

I love tweed yarn- yours looks mighty purty!

The new sweater looks quite lovely. Tweed is so wonderful.

The cardi is looking fantastic. I am sure your sleeves will be beautifully seamed.

And they gray tweed–divine!

I love the cardigan. Hope everything works out! :)

And I LOVE the tweed yarn!

Can’t wait to see the finished cardi.

Its beckoning call sounds like an enchanting siren. You must go. I know. Come back later with more photos, though!
