prairiedaun Nov. 25th, 2008 01:26 pm)Have successfully hand-sewn steeked a swatch. I've given it a few good tugs, and it has not unravelled. I'm cautiously optimistic.
Of course, after hand sewinga 4 inch swatch, my hand hurts from tension. Not sure how I'll manage a larger sweater, but I'll give it a shot. Also, I did a 3-needle bind off on the underarms of my cardigan and fixed the fairly major fuckup I made on the first where part of the back started to unravel.
I really need to get out and go to the store where I found the kind of jacket I want and see if they can call around for the right size/colour. Mom and I went to the other Mark's Work Warehouse on Sunday and the guy who called one other store for us (and there are several in the city) was really bitchy and ugh. Even if he had it there I wouldn't have wanted to buy from him.
