Almost done with the sweater made of Lion Brand Homespun. My challenge with this project is staying focused long enough to get something done. I got most of the hood knitted last night while watching Moulin Rouge. I sewed the sleeves on, but will I ever seam up the sides? The shoulder and hood seams were done with a three needle bind off. I love the three needle bind off because the finish is great and I don’t have to work hard at finding a place to run my needle. With this sweater, the length of body and sleeve were measured with the tape measure, not by the number of rows I worked. So there is imprecision, therefore, no three needle bind off. And the length would prevent me from using needles. At least the needles I currently own.
