Topic: nordic knitting
I am on the home stretch. The neck hem got knit last night, and all that is left to do is hand sew it down, and then
weave the underarm stitches together for a seamless finish.
I had an easier job with the hems this time. Since I was using two strands of Baby Ull for the sweater itself, it was a simple matter to use just a single strand for the hems. And, being thinner, once sewn down they were almost invisible. Being thinner, they are not as good looking, but their functionality far outweighs aesthetics in this case.
Tomorrow I will post the final picture of the sweater. It still needs blocking, so I'll get to that this afternoon.
