When I got here to you know...sleeve island... the realization that that were so big about made me..well let's just say a bit upset. Then after conferring with some friends, I started the decreases immediately to make the sleeve cap/opening/armscye...whatever you call this area, smaller. I surely don't want a bunch of fabric under my arms. So far, so good. We'll see how this goes.
Ribbing..
The buttonband ribbing went pretty well. No buttonholes were planned or made. I like how the colors ended up. I didn't even tweak that. I did run out of yarn from that ball about 6" from the end of the bind off....thank goodness for the russian join is all I'm saying...more on that later.
2 three-quarter length sleeves from this lone ball of yarn...
can she do it....time will tell...

very, very nice!
I just left the island! And I know the big sleeve thing too - so hard to get the opening right. But your stripes are lovely, hope it all turns out great :0)
I LOVE that color patterning! She CAN DO IT!
You're making me glad I knit the sleeves of my Pavillion first. I'm nearly done with the front. I want this sweater finished very badly, but I can feel that I'm starting to run out of steam on the project. ACK!
Your sweater is lovely. And you're making me itch to knit something with Taiyo!
Sooooooo pretty! You inspire.
I hope they work out well for you! I was sewing this weekend and I realized I hate sleeves no matter WHAT the medium!
You'll do it. I know you will. :-)
Pretty!
You can do it! Woo!
