Tops, Tanks, and Tees KAL || Week 2


 I am still making good progress on my Gemini for luvinthemommyhood's Tops, Tanks, and Tees Knit Along. I finished my second skein of yarn after finishing the hip increases on the body and decided to put it on a stitch holder and begin the sleeves to maximize my yarn. I've finished sleeve number 1 and as I mentioned in my last post I've modified the sleeve to be fitted and worked a 3/4 length rather than the tee shirt length in the pattern. I've kept notes on my modifications if you're interested in how I changed the sleeves.

I'm hoping that the second sleeve leaves me with enough yarn to add some extra length to the body of this pullover, fingers crossed!

Are you participating in the TTT KAL? Are you making good progress into Week 2?

    1. Thanks Julie! Me too, I think 3/4 length are my favorite, I end up pushing full length sleeves up to my elbows anyway!
