It is not five inches. It clocks in at four, but the sweater length is right where I wanted it. I did a try on and I really like it. I can't wait for the sleeves to be complete.
There is a limited amount of the grey.
It was a wee bit over half a skein. I needed to get sleeve uppers and the neckband out of it. Before I could divide it for sleeves, I needed to do the collar.
In a sudden burst of knititude, the collar happened. It will be folded over and sewn down during sweater finishing. I opted to sew it rather than knitting the edge down as I cast off because when I tried that long ago, I found my knitting got too tight and it was much too easy to put the stitches together unevenly. Sewing it only takes a moment.
I also sewed on box 1 of 5. It is a pretty simple process but getting it right takes some time. The sizes are all custom based on the existing shelves, so there is a lot of measuring happening. More sewing is going to happen today.
I got up a bit late this morning so I am running behind. Coffee two needs to happen before anything else.
