I have made progress on my cardigan. I'm working on the sleeves, I put markers in my decrease rows so it is easier to count how many decreases I have done. I followed the instructions in my favorite knitting book for sewing seams, there are specific ways to sew together bound off edges or horizontal seams, edge to edge or vertical seams, and horizontal sewn to a vertical edge seams. This sweater has all three types of seams and with a little steam I think they will look pretty dandy. We have had lots of cool windy days here perfect for knitting. linking to Judy's OTN. --Ann--
