Operation Deconstruction...
...Complete.
Howdie..
Yes it's true.. I've completed the deconstruction process of my sleeve remake. I'm calling them Sleeves v2.0. Brad was calling me crazy last night when I started ripping everything apart.. but I did so gently and it went amazingly well.. Better than I thought actually. It's nice to know that I can infact dismantle parts of a project while leaving the parts I want saved in tact.
I really think it'll be much better this time around... I've decided to knit the sleeves in the round up till the decreases.. this will take out the sleeve seam (Which was bugging the inside of my wee lil elbow like CRAZY) and hopefully make for a smoother look. I'll also be lengthining them an inch and a half (Without having to attach "cuffs" again).. and I've decided to keep the stripes.
This is what you get when you're a perfectionist with nothing new to move on and knit. It's not so bad.. really!

I thought the sleeves looked cool, but ripping is good practice too. Please do keep the stripes, can't wait to see the finished sleeves sans cuffs...
About Me
-
- Name:Kim
- Location:Houston, Texas, United States
I'm a tiny short woman who loves to knit clothes that actually fit me. I first learned to knit when I was about 10 but I never got beyond knit and purl. I didn't pick up knitting again till about 2 years ago, and now with the help of tons of library books, I'm chugging along and I think I'm pretty darn good : ) I'm married, and love my Australian husband dearly.
