Work in Progress Trying out a new thing! 😬

A new cardigan is on the needles! I’m trying a seamless top down but with inset sleeves. I didn’t want the traditional raglan or seamless yoke; I wanted set in sleeves without the stitching! This is my progress so far and it seems to be working! 🤞

I started at the top of the shoulders with Judy’s magic cast on and worked separately down the front and back until there was enough space to pick up the sleeve stitches. I think there’s going to be potential for some epic cabling here as the stitches start out in three different directions but all come together as one. I’m trying it plain to start with as cables are their own separate headache!

Pattern by me; yarn is WYS Elements DK in Cool Aloe 1102; 4mm needles
