I skipped a couple of steps


The instructions call for binding off after the yoke, then picking up ALL the stitches just bound off, then putting the sleeves on a holder.  I am far too lazy, and just purled a row, then put the sleeves on a holder.  I put in a few short rows for DD's boobage (two sets, will probably do one more).  

Just.  Keep.  Knitting.

*****  Two sets of short rows.  For Chris' benefit!  LoL

Why do you purl a row before putting the sleeves on a holder?

Marie-it was to delineate-I am faking binding it off.

I read that as DD has two sets of boobage! I seriously need to read slower. It's looking lovely.

It looks lovely so far, Bets. Love the lacy leaves.

It really looks beautiful. Somehow it makes the Katrina look so light and lacy. She will feel so elegant and girly in that.
