Ribbon Edged Cardigan

Done! Here is Josies sweater.
I used Plymouth Encore DK. Knit in a week. The pattern calls for a ribbon around the neck edge. I didn't add the ribbon.

Here inside you can see the added cover over the steeked area. It just seems to make the inside cleaner.

Cutting done - Picked up stitches and knit button band with button holes.

Here is a fun sweater from a Debbie Bliss book - Special Knits. This is designed to be knit in pieces. Instead - I changed it and knit in round with steeks. Here is a picture after I have sewn the steeks with my sewing machine. Next cutting!

Millie's stocking

Christmas Stocking. I added a cover on the inside of the stocking. Knowing this is going to be used and it is for a child - I didn't want all the yarn on the inside to get caught.
