Separating body and arms…
07-02-2016
Reached the sleeve splitting and decided I need a bit more ease on the sleeves themselves.
Adding 4 more rows with increases only in the arms, and casting on 2 more stitches under the arm.
(62+94+124+94+62)

Finished the last “wide” stripe - from now on, rows get shorter!

Shortly after that I realized I had done too few short rows on the next two stripes, so the project was in timeout for almost a month. Finally ripped back today, my, I missed working on my lovely project!

Past the ripped yarn, onto the third back stripe.
I added a coupe of pics of the mistake, before I ripped.

I recalculated the start of the arms since I had changed the armholes (thanks to MarianaGoi for the help)
I did the decreases the pattern called for afterwards.
Today, about half way through the first arm, I decided to do decreases every fewer rows so it is not so wide in the cuffs

Llevó un poco más de dos madejas de pura, y me sobró un poquitito chiquitisimo de WM
