Finished the edge around the jacket today.

The sleeves have been set in, but they are at least 10 cm too long. Think I have to undo the sewing and shorten them… :-(

Finally all done!

January 30, 2016

After soaking in Eucalan and letting the jacket dry flat, the sleeves were suddenly 20 cm too long, because the body widened a lot….. :-(

I did some research on the web, and decided to shorten them from the bottom. So I inserted a thread of a contrasting color and cut open the first stitch of the following row.
Then I unraveled this row, and all the stitches were left on the color thread.
Proud I managed to do this :-)
