Tonight I put down the pink sweater in favor of seaming an old baby sweater I finished a few months ago.
It looks pretty good. Here's a picture of the cabled front.
While I'm pretty pleased with how it is turning out I have a confession to make. I suck at seaming. I mean, it's bad. I'm never really sure where I should be sticking the needle and then I just end up kind of doing my own thing and it seems to be working out (for now). I think if I could properly see the stitches it would be better. But the colors of this yarn kind of obscure my view (and, hopefully, the view of my poor seaming job). However I end up getting the needle through, I always make sure that I do it nice and tight. At least that way it won't come undone. When I finish with the seaming I want to add a zipper to the front. Ambitious, I know. But I'm hoping that will make the semi-crinkly fronts lie flatter.Penelope came to investigate and was thoroughly unconcerned with my seaming problems. Please divert your eyes from my hideous attire.
