The body of Sweetie Pie is done and is on the blocking board. I don't know what I was doing Thursday night, I remember fretting that it was taking for...e...ver to get the proper length on the right back. I knew the yarn blocked longer. I had to reknit the right back as it somehow ended up MUCH too long.
Then I questioned whether I should block first, before knitting the sleeves, or do the sleeves and then block. The sleeves are picked up from the body and knitted down to the cuff. In the end, I decided I better block first due to the length before/after blocking issue, to make sure I got it right. So Sweetie Pie is wet and on the blocking board. When she dries I will pick up the sleeves and probably block the whole thing again before seaming. Sounds excessive doesn't it?
