It worked! I added the three inches of length to the sweater sleeve plus the waste yarn, picked up and knitted the armhole onto waste yarn and grafted the two pieces together! Very relaing, very exact and it turned out beautifully much to my deight! I'm well on my way with sleeve #2 and will use the same technique to attach it. I consider this idea a huge success!

ReplyDeleteWoo hoo!!! It's great when things work out since they rarely do in the knitting realm. Yarn is a cruel master.
