I have successfully completed the four pieces for my Brocade Leaves sweater. To finish, I only need to sew the pieces together, and do a bit more knitting on the neckline.
I’m a little nervous about the sewing together part of this. I’ve seamed knitting before, but this is the first thing I’m planning to seam that I’m also planning to wear, and I’m terribly nervous that I’ll manage to muck it up somehow so it’s completely unwearable. Frankly, I’ve been sewing long enough that I really need to not worry about this, but I am anyway. Here’s hoping things go smoothly.
As a reward for finishing up the final sleeve last night, I cast on some Waving Lace socks, for this month’s Sockdown challenge (lace socks). I’m using the Woodland Sage colorway of the Knitpicks Risata I picked up a month or so ago.
