semi-boatneck<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When I posted this<\/a> last week, I neglected to say that I wasn’t really happy with the round neckline. I’d wanted a boatneck, but something was sort of lost in translation when I generated the pattern. Just out of curiosity, I contacted Amy Herzog of CustomFit<\/a>, and she very kindly told me how to mitigate the problem. It involved removing the neck band, undoing the shoulder seams and part of the sleeve seam, and ripping out a certain number of rows — most of which were very short, anyway.<\/p>\n

I’ve finished doing that and re-knitting everything now, and it’s still not really my idea of a boatneck, but it’s a lot better, and I know I’m going to be happier with it. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Now I’m waiting for some supplies I couldn’t find in town, and then I’ll be able to begin my next project!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
