It’s time to update you on my progress with the Lavanda sweater.
https://wordpress.com/post/dailyfiberfun.wordpress.com/4827
The cool thing about top-down construction is that you can see very clearly how the sweater will look when finished. If your model is near at hand, you can even try it on the little darling.
Since my model is not, I will have to use my imagination.
The sleeve cap stitches are on waste yarn. I have reached the bottom of the yoke section and started the cables at the top of the skirt.
Buttonholes are knitted into the band simultaneously. So far, I have three buttonholes created at a spacing of 16 rows.
I keep going with skirt and button bands until the piece measures 7 inches from the arm hole opening. Then I come to a screeching halt while I knit in waste yarn for two after-thought pockets.
It’s all going swiftly, the same way Spring marches in following Winter. (Oh! That simile works for most year, just not this one.)
