Nothing Like New Clothes

So, I am wearing the new shell today to work. And since it's also book club day, it'll be shown off there, too. I think if I were to do it again, I would make the arm holes a smidge longer, but it's still very livable.

The sleeves were an interesting amalgamation. I picked up stitches around the armhole for most of the length of the arm hole. Then I added a total of 20 stitches over the next 12 rows. When they were finished, I sewed the edges to the rest of the arm hole and the remainder of the sleeve. The effect is a very round, bell-like sleeve that flops more than most.

All in all, I like the way it turned out.
