I realise I haven’t mentioned knitting in quite a while. Last time I showed you, I’d finished the back and knitted this much of a sleeve of my Heartfelt cardigan.
Normally I knit two sleeves together, but for practical reasons I’m not on this one. This prompted me to ask if other people knitted both sleeves together. I was amazed from the comments how many different orders a sweater/cardigan can be knitted in. More amazingly everyone had perfectly good and logical reasons why they did things in their order.
This made me ask if I’d be happier knitting a cardigan/sweater in a different order. I came up with a resounding NO, particularly, because I now realise I also like to knit the front(s) last, because they’re the most interesting and quickest bit – which is just how I eat a meal; from least favourite food to the most favourite!
Anyway, I’ll shut up now and show you I’ve now finished both sleeves.
Hurrah!
Until next time,

I love those hearts
So, it’s the fronts next then is it?

Thank you. Just started the left front. Trying to write pattern as I go, but so much to calculate, I realising why I gave up on writing it last time!

That is really interesting because I bet we all figured everyone did a sweater in the same order we do it
