Have you ever heard of second sock syndrome? If you aren’t a sock knitter, maybe you haven’t. Second sock syndrome hits when you have just finished knitting your first beautiful sock. You stop, you admire your handiwork, you think about the hours of work you poured into that lovely sock. Then you realize that you have to do it all over again. The second sock is just harder to knit. Well, if you are a sweater knitter, you know that it is so much worse with sleeves. Second sleeve syndrome is REAL. After knitting a fun, engaging sweater body, most sleeves are boring tubes of solid-colored dullness. Well, not these sleeves! The Sock
Arms Cardigan was designed to use your favorite self-striping yarn where you need it the most—on the sleeves. In this sweater, you will race through the body
