Topic: nordic knitting
The sleeves in this size take so little time. I normally hate working with two colors on double pointed needles (although I LOVE my Crystal Palacedouble pointed bamboo needles), but with the more efficient use of my right hand it is now simple.
I finally got the tension I was looking for at the beginning. I knit on the loose side, but it is easier on my back, which likes to spasm when I do too much knitting and not enough exercising. (I come from a LONG history of left shoulder/back issues and have learned how to TAKE CARE)
My biggest challenge has been to figure out where to go from here. I designed a yoke chart last night that totally charmed me, and now the trick is to make it work along with the shaped decreases AND for 8 sizes. Stay tuned!
