Now it looks like a sweater:
(So, I got a new computer not quite a month ago, and instead of using the image editing software I've been using for more than a decade, I'm using what was on the new computer. It'll be better, once I get the hang of it.)
As you can see, I'm working both sleeves at the same time, just like I worked the front and the back at the same time. This way, I can't screw up by forgetting what I did for the first by the time I reach the second.
I confirmed with Liv that it's long enough. So, I can sew down those side seams (which I didn't as I wasn't sure if I was going to add length). Now it's just a matter of getting the sleeves to be 18 inches long.
It's something to do while watching the Olympics.
(I'm regretting the theme I adopted for the titles to these posts. I mean, it was obvious when I started, but I'm running out of seeing-themed words. As I type this, the post is untitled. Whatever will I title this post?)
Late edit: Guess who tested positive for Covid? My posts for this week are already all written and scheduled. I'll be around, but not as quickly as usual. (I feel like I have a cold--another cold this summer. Ugh.)
Eye sweater previous posts:
It looks great! Even with short sleeves it's wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThose will be long sleeves. Eventually.
DeleteHi Liz - there's a lot of Covid around ... take care. Love the Eye top ... fun - I bet Liv will love it. Yes - it'll keep you occupied watching the Olympics ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteIt’s looking great
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteThat looks funky cool.
ReplyDeleteSorry you're sick.
Thanks. (To quote Monty Python: I'm getting better...)
DeleteIt does! But the sweater's still watching me.
ReplyDeleteFeel better. I'm glad you're vaccinated.
This project is coming together. Feel better soon! I think Covid is settling into a winter & summer pattern. Lots of Olympics to watch. I like that there is lots of live coverage during the day, although I'm not watching much of what I am recording.
ReplyDeleteI've been watching yesterday's prime time coverage in the evening. (Couldn't watch during the day today as we had an internet hiccup.)
DeleteI do things as I watch tv.
ReplyDeleteOh no! Feel better!!! :-)

Thanks. I'm actually not feeling too horrible today. (Read: I barely feel it.)
DeleteNow this has become a serial interest for me too 😊
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, I'll continue to post updates until I finish it. If I skip a week, that only means I made no progress.
DeleteOh yuk Covid, I hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteI didn't get it bad. One day of misery. Now I just feel like I have a mild cold. (Very mild.)
DeleteIt's always a challenge adapting to new software, but it sounds like you're making progress!
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying the Olympics. I am fully glued to the TV almost all the time :-) One reason why my posts are getting delayed!
Hope your infection is not too bad. Here cough-cold-fever is common. But I doubt if anyone is testing of Covid because I haven't heard of any cases here!
Take care.
It's fun with short sleeves too, their beginning is very pretty, love the yarn unsimilarity!
ReplyDeleteNot fun to be ill... Take care
