My short rows worked!

It's always a good feeling to get something you've charted actually knit, and have it work out just like you imagined. Yeah!

Last night I knit two inches of short rows for a bust dart on my Ljace Kofta. I even did them in pattern. there were a number of things to think about doing my chart, but it all worked out beautifully.

When I get time I'll tidy the chart up and share it here. I know a lot of folks are confused about just how short row darts work. I've done enough of them now to be confident about the basic parameters, but the details are still tricky when there is a stitch pattern involved.

Today I did the first band of beaded eyelet and will start the lace patterned yoke tomorrow. I seem to be pretty focused on this sweater, which feels good.
