This is the present project. Pink sleeves. See the nice lacy bit at the cuff? See how it's sort of flat on the one sleeve and curling a bit on the other? So what do we think will happen if I use this nice lacy edging along the bottom of the whole sweater?? If it were wool, I would have some hope of blocking it to not curl, but with cotton, I dunno. So, I'm wondering about putting a ruffle on the bottom and then starting the lace. Or just ribbing, and then a vertical line of the lace up the fronts. I'm joining it all in a yoke and making raglans -- this will keep me from that not-sewing-together disease.It will be for my daughter, seen below with the next project!
We sorted all the yarn into dark and light -- but she had her own ideas and did some other sorting, too! It's quite enough for an adult sweater, don't you think?
