I'm doing this on Georgia's sweater. Here's a picture of the first two inches (or thereabouts) of the body:
The sleeves are done for this sweater, so alls I need to do is finish up the body. And then steek! I'm learning all kinds of new stuff for this sweater. The section to be steeked is visible towards the back of the photo, in the center. It's that strip of plain stockinette.
I also got a package from Jenny, as she had a giveaway on her blog and I won! We have decimated the chocolate (that happened yesterday), and I left the yarn at home, so I couldn't get a picture of it in the sunlight, but I promise to try in the future.
Yay, it arrived! The sweater looks gorgeous, both cabling without a cable needle and steeking at once! Both are techniques I really want to learn, I'm thinking of at least trying out steeking on my next cardigan project...
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy your yarn (and that the chocolate was good too :)!
Hugs / Jenny
Steeking scares me. Hope you do a pictorial of it to share!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid of cabling without cable needle and steeking, I should work on those thing...
ReplyDeleteSteeking scares me to :-) Never done it before, and probably never will do in the future :-) But good luck to you, you can be very proud after managing to get a very good result. Yes, I belive in you!
ReplyDeleteas usual, I know nothing of which you type about! But I think they're all really purty and I can't wait for it to ever get below 80 here so I can pull my sweet scarf out and at least look at it!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Turkey Day to you, sweet V!!
