I’m now about an inch and a half past the armholes. I love this sweater. We’ve had a couple of rainy days, which led to a fair bit of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and sweater knitting. I’m getting nervous about steeking this, but I know I’ll be glad I did it. I have already started to think about buttons.
Are you making an Arachne? If you are, how is it going. If you have ever wanted to make one, please join our KAL. It is a long one, so don’t worry about not having it done this month.

I really like looking at it week by week, because if I look at it daily it feels like I’m not making any progress.

Oh it looks great! Have you looked for spider buttons? Someone online must have something arachnid themed:)

I have several buttons favorited on Etsy. There are lots of good options, which makes me fear that I’m about to start a spider button collection.

It’s look great, I don’t know what on Earth I was thinking, but I googled Spider Buttons!! I’ll have nightmares for weeks hahaha but there are ones like these that are pale with spiders on so they’ll stand out. https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/554369335/halloween-buttons-spider-buttons-ghost?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=spider+buttons&ref=sc_gallery-1-5&plkey=1124c8291087fb8c093b14862b804538ec36240c%3A554369335

Those are cute! I found lots of options on Etsy, and I’m trying to refrain from buying them all to see which ones work best on the sweater.

I will. Although I might be crying with fear, so I might not share it.

Oh wow it looks so good! That is going to be one fab cardigan when it’s done (and you’ve recovered from the steek).
