Not much progress around here in the past week, and I’m losing momentum… So, to avoid the very real danger of giving up before this sweater gets both its sleeves: Here I am, starting my magic loop, two-at-a-time, top-down sleeves. These are a lot of firsts for me, and I might be a little terrified :D

    Looks gorgeous! You got this! Knitting sleeves TAAT in magic loop is my preferred method for sweaters. It might take a bit, but you’ll end up with perfect length sleeves and when you’re done, you can wear it immediately!

      @thegiddystitcher@lemm.ee, @MrsDoyle, @CutexKitty, thank you so much for the good vibes and TAAT appreciation! The truth is, that I already frogged and restarted once because (a) I created huge ladders and (b) I split the sleeves at the wrong place, so I couldn’t work my decreases properly. And I really need to think carefully about what goes where when I put the work down and pick it up again. Definitely not going to watch TV while working on this one, lol
