I think I started this sweater in 1995 and it went very quickly until some
family emergency came up. At that point I was on the second sleeve, having
done the body of the sweater, one sleeve and the collar.
Well, my tension changed and the second sleeve was about two sizes smaller
than the first sleeve and certainly didn't fit me! So I ripped it out and put the yarn away.
I brought out the sweater when Junie started the MLC KAL and have done about half the second sleeve. But it is still slow going.
Dale Sweater Part 2
Finally finished the knitting and cannot face the finishing so am going to
take it to the lys and ask if she finishes sweaters or knows someone who
does finish. Then it will be out of my hair.
The sweater is a little too big but I can use it as an outside sweater. I
love the color and the pattern. I think I will do another Dale sweater but this time I will steek AND I will knit the sleeves top down. The only way to do them!!
