I'm finally starting back up again on my Looking Back pullover. I put it aside for awhile because I had the urge to make lots of knitted toys for whatever reason, and now after looking through some different clothing patterns I feel like I'm ready to go back to working on sweaters for a little while.
I finished the sleeve today, and I'm really pleased with the fit of it. I ended up kind of improvising the sleeve shaping and decided to do 3/4 sleeves since this sweater is made with a cotton/bamboo blend that I think will be great for warmer weather.
The fit of the sweater is a little baggier than what I had intended on, although right now I think I like the way it's fitting. I think it'll definitely need to be blocked because my stockinette isn't all that even in this loose of a gauge, so I'm really really hoping it doesn't grow too much from being blocked.
I'm happy with the progress so far, and I'm excited to finish up this sweater and move onto the next one!
