First an update on my Vibeke Lind and Hanne Vedel Jacket. First sleeve is done and I have ordered the gold pin, which is designed for the jacket. A lovely Christmas present from my father, my husband and myself.
The sleeve is knit sideways, with saddle shoulder, using short-rows for top-shaping. I am not sure that my cast-on edge and the bind-off ditto will be of equal length so I decided to use provisional cast-on and will sew the sides together with kitchener stitch...(Smiling)Helen has a lovely post which tells what can happen if you have to send your knitting over-seas for seaming.
I have recently worked a pullover using the contiguous sleeve method developed by Susie Myers. I really like the look of my shoulders in that construction. Notice: I had to make some athletic postures to show you this winner.
I love the sweater - I have done some of the top down set in all in one piece from Barbara Walker, but have yet to do the Susie Myers version. Yours looks perfect!
ReplyDeleteI must see the Barbara Walker method some day, however this sleevecap is very comfortable.
DeleteBeautiful! And...you're young...you can manage athletic postures!
