One Sleeve Done

I spent New Year's Day watching football - almost 12 hours worth! What did I do? Knit of course. I finished one sleeve on my mom's Estelle cardigan and am halfway done with the second sleeve.
I put all the body stitches on my Try It On Tubing and am waiting to see how much yarn I have before doing the pretty feather and fan detail on the bottom edge - I want to make the sweater as long as I can for her and make sure I have enough to go around the neckline.



















As I told my mom when I emailed her this photo - the detail looks much prettier in person.

I envy you because I'm lousy with needle crafting.. no imagination, that's why. I have tried cross stitching but still haven't finished that project. :(
