All the knitting on Miss BB is complete and it’s time to seam my sweater.
Knitting
Since my last post I knit the second front, and both of the sleeves. I blocked each piece as I completed them.
Last night I knit the final section where the side collar pieces meet at the back. My favorite detail of this sweater is that cable that is on the back of the shawl collar. I love how it meets up with the cables on the center back!
I still need to seam the shoulders, sew up the side seams. Then sew up the sleeves and set them in to the openings.
I might sew in some grosgrain ribbon to the button bands. I haven’t picked out buttons yet.
Festival Preparations
We are still working full time on restocking products for the fall festival season. Jerry is busy making more Yarn Swifts at the moment. I have been busy sewing bags for those. I also washed, dried, and labeled some Bare Yarns. We restocked all the Bare Yarns in the wool bases and also the Organic Cotton Sport and Organic Cotton Worsted yarns.
I am getting excited to get back out on the road next month. I am enjoying being home, but I love seeing the knitters too!
Your sweater is just gorgeous! The cable on the neck meeting the back cable really is something special!! You are a knitting machine ;)
Well, I don’t know about that. My progress feels slow, but thank you! That cable detail is really cool, isn’t it?
Your sweater is beautiful. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that the Young’s Dairy Farm Festival in September is not freaking hot this year!!!
Thank you! I finished the seaming this morning. I need to make a run to Joann’s for buttons.
