Actual steeking was successfully avoided. I crocheted the edges of the steeks-to-be on Sunday night, starting aorund 8 PM. BUT - I realized that I need to un-three-needle-bind-off the shoulders and looking back at Lisa's steeks, I think I need to crochet not at the edges but toward the center. And I need to steam the sleeves and body first, right? So it's just as well that I didn't cut!

I also heard that my yarn for the Cottage Garden sweater is in at ThreadBear. Yay! But - ack! Where will I put it without a bed to stash it under? This sweater will also be a challenge because there are three colors in every row. Slow-going, methinks!

Will Sweatergirl unhitch the shoulders? Will the crocheted steeks hold on slippery Tiur? Will there be any nasty consequences to the steaming? Will S give up some space in the office for yarn storage? Will you ever see a photo of the Snail's Pace Sweater? And how many years until Sweatergirl wears the Cottage Garden Sweater? Tune in for the next installment of "Sweatergirl - Adventures in Knitting"...
