So I am hoping to complete all the finishing on my Rujuu before the fashion show, but my indecision has taken hold. I purchased a length of trim to sew over the steek selvedges, then decided that maybe I could just make it on my Inkle loom instead. However, the band pattern I chose is… a challenge. At least for my current skill set. And it is taking me forever haha I wonder if I should just sew on the store-bought band and finish my woven band later? Also… which buttons?!?!

I just can’t figure out what I am doing!! I’m knitting size four. I have 86 stitches on my needles. I am on clue 4, which I thought was going to make this easier but alas, I am so confused! If I start at stitch four for all following rows I will not have a full set of three on the last set to form the crescent shape. I do not want to wing this and frog back on these stitches it’s bad enough I got the dominant color part wrong in the middle!🤣😂 Any advice?

Curious is the mock seam for design only or is there a purpose? I like to know the ins and outs of how things work.

So excited to have completed this sweater. I did the arm shaping a little different since I prefer looser sleeves. Excited to debut this tomorrow for St Patricks Day.
