(St)EEK!!

So I finished the sleeves for Chris’s sweater:

And now I have to do something scary:

I’m using Eunny Jang’s extremely well-written tutorial for my crocheted steek, it worked on my swatch, but it’s still scary to think about taking a pair of scissors to this big piece of knitting. If I fuck it up… well, it’s not going to be pretty - there’s a lot of emotional crap knit into this sweater (to put it mildly). My sanity may not *quite* be riding on my success here, but it might not be off the mark to guess that there could be tears and a fire if there is failure.

    Oooh! Drama. Excitement. Possible mayhem. Can’t wait. (Except I read the sidebar, so I know you’re okay.)
