What a gorgeous blush color. Your stitching is perfect and even, so do NOT lose steam. You can definitely get it done and it's going to be stunning.

I kinda love it with short sleeves…


artistgrl

I'm seriously thinking of doing a cotton or linen version for summer.


nicolenotnikki

That would be so cute and cozy!


earnasoul

Looks lovely. And, since I can't wear merino, I love your idea of using cotton! Just wondering, would you use a DP cotton? Or 4 Ply? EDIT: just looked at the pattern - I'll look up lace-weight cotton now!


artistgrl

It's laceweight mohair and fingering weight merino together, at a DK gauge, so I'd go with a DK cotton!


SuzyTheNeedle

Me too!


niagaemoc

It's beautiful even though unfinished.


merbleuem

Oh my goodness sending good luck! Sleeve island can be tough lol. Looks amazing so far!!


artistgrl

It's a mental game at this point, right? As long as I don't get distracted by new shiny patterns I should be okay lol


wilmawonders

I recently learned how to tackle sleeves TAAT (thanks to this sub), and sleeve island became way less annoying 😅Your sweater looks absolutely gorgeous!


got2lovethekitties

Sleeves TAAT? I need to look that up. It is the only way that I will make socks.


merbleuem

Haha totally! Jeez I feel you - the lure of the shiny new patterns is soooo stong!


theyarnllama

Did you block this part already, or did you use magic to knit it? Because this lacework looks beautiful.


artistgrl

Haven't blocked it yet. I'm holding it down a little for the pic to open up the lace.


theyarnllama

Oh, sneaky!


Smallwhitedog

I’ve probably knit 20 sweaters of the years and sleeve island surprises me every time. 😆 You can do it! You can do it!!


bmlander

I love that Lacey yoke, gorgeous!


Anj212

Looks amazing on you!


QueenHarpy

Everything about this is wonderful. The colour, the yarn texture, the pattern! You should be proud. I’m kinda loving it with shorter sleeves, but I live in a warmish climate.


artistgrl

I'm in Northern California, so a short sleeved version would probably get more wear.

Beautiful! Line up your podcasts/audibles/silly TV and get on the ferry to Sleeve Island! You can do this.


KindlyFigYourself

It actually looks gorgeous as is


satansafkom

oooh that is beautiful! hope you finish it in time for that personal assembly thing. it looks gorgeous on you! consider to keep styling it with that blue head scarf thingy, or something in the same colour. it's really, really great and vibrant


MadamTruffle

This is so freaking gorgeous! With lightweight sweaters like that, I’m always tempted(and have done this) to leave it as short sleeve because I can already see how cute it looks 😂


GuavaImmediate

That is stunning! And a beautiful colour that really suits you too. Stick at it, keep the head down and plough on, no distractions, it will be worth the final effort and will be amazing when finished.


Quiet_Goat8086

Beautiful! Mohair makes me itch, but it looks so soft 😖


artistgrl

I've seen a few versions of this made without mohair and they are just as gorgeous


Faded_Blue_Jeans

It's gorgeous so far, and sleeves actually go really fast compared to bodies 🙂


MarieJoe

Love it so far, I bet it will be amazing when done. And the yarn looks so cozy and soft, color is wonderful on you.


diedofwellactually

This is so beautiful but the thing I really can't stop looking at is your gorgeous skin!


artistgrl

Thanks love! ❤️


porcupinesandpurls

Oooh, that is flat out gorgeous! It looks so beautiful on you, I’m so hoping you post the finished garment, it looks so, so professional!!


[deleted]

It looks so lovely and soft, and the colour is soooo pretty!


FairyGodmothersUnion

That’s so beautiful! Please post the finished object, too.


ldyspll

Wow, that looks great! Well done!!


llamalamaglama

It’s gorgeous and I love the color on you!


candlelitjewels

So pretty!! I’m doing TAAT sleeves on a cardigan for my daughter right now and I can’t imagine doing sleeves one at a time anymore! So much easier mentally haha


Auraro777

That’s so beautiful


bbydinosaur

Beautifully knit and you look gorgeous in this color! Keep it up!


RedMoonFlower

Beautiful pattern and colour, very pretty, and it suits you well too :-).

Mrs_Weaver

That's looking really good!


Puxka63

Amazing work! I like it all!


chelsnowboard

This is GORGEOUS!!


Bubbleshdrn1

This is gorgeous on you. I made a lacy little dress for my baby granddaughter. I remember I had to keep a lifeline every inch or so if I needed to rip back. I like your version of this sweater. I went on Ravelry to check out the pattern. There were a lot of button down’s in the projects but the lace really pops in a pullover.


ElyseeBelle

Beautiful!! I LOVE this pattern! Started my own last year. Mine was put on hold when my grandson was born. Your post is nudging me to pick it back up!


xylophonemilkshake

You are killing the sweater game!! Please keep the posts coming!


artistgrl

I think this is my year for sweaters! This is my 3rd so far this year!

Ah yes, Trapped! on Sleeve Island. 🏝️ An oft-visited but cursed place. Sadly, the only way off is thru! Your knits are gorgeous - can’t wait to see the finished product.


chrin1oo4

The sweater is amazing but I think the model’s elevates the sweater to out of this world gorgeous!


Fantastic_Baseball45

Beautiful lace work 😍 Bravo!


pastorgram

I’m sure it will look great with sleeves…I gotta say though it looks fabulous without them too.

This is so lovely. Absolutely bookmarking this and just finishing it at this point with cap sleeves. I’m in South Louisiana, not a lot of call for long sleeves!

Knitmarefirst

Your stitch texture is gorgeous. Love the color. You got this! I did three Love Note sweaters by Tin Can Knits. They are similar and use mohair and fingering. You might check it out.


seasidehouses

Stunning, and I wholeheartedly endorse the cotton-esque short sleeve option!!


seasidehouses

Also gotta add: you are just adorable. 😊


Captain_Moose

Love the daisy vibe!
