Started at 3.25mm needle, after 20 inches changed to 3.5mm

September 7, 2017

About 25 inches I changed back to 3.25mm.
After 4 skeins, I want to try it on. So I have to start opening the armholes. Took me some time to figure out how to pick up the stitches from above and bottom of the waste yarn.

September 8, 2017

For the first sleeve I picked up stitches and knitted together, not work very well for me. For the second sleeve, I used two needles, one for the top, another for the bottom, and slowly took the waste yarn away, use needles to hold the stitches. Work a lot faster and no mistakes.vvv
