3rd ball of duett - 15” from CO edge. I’ve been knitting this on weekends while doing laundry but I am excited to get going on the lace section.

4th ball of duett - 17.5” from CO edge + sleeve CO and 2 rows of sleeves, which is a total of 18” from CO edge.

I knit 17.5” before starting sleeves, I CO right sleeve at beginning of RS row with knitted CO and the left sleeve at the end of the same RS row with backwards loop CO.

5th ball of duett - 21” from CO edge, a little over 3” from sleeve CO edge. I did 2.5” of stockinette on sleeves before starting the pattern stitch. I am 4 rows in to the 8 row repeat. Need to attach 6th ball.

Just finished the first pattern repeat on the sleeves. This has moved from the knitting while waiting for the laundry to wash and dry project to my main project. Hoping to get through the lace portion by the end of the day.

While finishing row 4 of the 3rd repeat of lace last night, I realized that a few of the diamond shapes were disfigured, obviously a mistake on my part, so I pulled back 8 rows of lace to correct it. I am currently on row 5 of the 2nd repeat (and still using ball 6 of duett).

I finished the BO and CO rows of the neck last night. Today I finished rows 3-8 after the neck as well as one additional repeat. I’m on ball 8 of duett.

07-27-2020

Finished the lace section and 4 rows of stockinette on the front half of the sleeves.

I am at the front ribbing now (finally!) after neglecting this WIP for a long time!

I’ve seamed her up using a crochet slip stitch seam and I did the ribbing for the sleeves. All that’s left is the neck ribbing!
