In a past blog post I think I mentioned that Dear One asked me to make him the Finest Kind Sweater. I have been working two or more rounds a day for all summer. Finally yesterday I finished the right front section and worked a three-needle bind off to put the two shoulders together. The first try I managed to bind off both fronts together instead of binding a right front to a right back etc. Oh well. So I took that bind off out and did it properly the second time!
Next thing to do was to knit the collar which I did when we came home from the FamilySearch Center. We had patrons in the Center last night and enjoyed helping them.
Here is a photo of the shoulders stitched together correctly. Dear One tried it on and the sweater fits!
Here is the collar. Not a great design in my view but that is what is called for so I did it. Finished it late last night. No ends woven in yet.
Hopefully today I will start picking up stitches for the first sleeve...
