Seaming!

So after a hiatus, I finally blocked my Ivy. After leaving it blocking for a week or two, I finally upinned it and began to seam. I have done the shoulders and one side so far. The seaming is a little tedious, but made me realize I was an idiot for not finishing this earlier so I could enjoy wearing it sooner! It's beautiful and I can tell it's going to fit well. Just a lot of seaming...

I'm about to go on vacation, so I suspect the seaming won't get done until after I return. I'm tempted to take it with me, but a plane may not be a great place to seam.

The armholes on the body pieces look longer than the armholes on the sleeve pieces. Could that be right? Maybe I just didn't have it laid out right.

Howdy!

Hello out there, fellow knitsters!

How is everyone progressing with their Ivys? I can imagine, now that summer weather is arriving (at least here in the Northern Hemisphere), that many of us may be putting aside the sweater knitting for cooler projects. But if you still have your Ivy going strong, be sure to post and share an update with us! And if you have questions be sure to ask, we are all here to share and help.

Knit on!
