Just keep truckin'...

Neckline is dropped. Sweater is joined in the round and the first repeat of the lace pattern is finished. Tomorrow, I'll take this off needles to try and and see how close I am to putting the sleeves on waste yarn. My arm hurts from patting myself on the back: the stitches I picked up for the collar are seamless with what was already knit. That has never happened to me before. My pick up work isn't terrible, but you can usually tell I picked the stitches up. Today? The just melted beautifully into the existing work. I'll have to remember what I did for the future.
