Another sleeve done

I was inspired to work on the oriel lace blouse again when I saw this.
Previously I worried about the fact that I was making this with only 1/2" of ease. After seeing these pictures I'm glad I made that decision.

I didn't realize I was so close to finishing a sleeve. It seems odd to me that the sleeve cap measures only 4.5" high while the armsceye is something like 7 or 8". I decided to just follow the pattern and quit questioning it so much, so the first sleeve is blocking now. The lace is so beautiful when it's blocked!


I also did a little spinning this weekend. I think I have, in total, about 20 yards of yarn now.

So, is your camera broken? You know that I need visuals. =)

The camera works just fine, but it and most of my knitting is at home. I prefer to do my blog posts from work. Why waste personal time on something I can do while I'm being paid?

You should be able to figure out the hypotenuse from the pattern, which will be longer than 4.5". It probably won't be the exact same size, but it should be close.
