day ninety: how many times can I redo a sleeve before it's right?

All I wanted was to bind the cuffs of the tunic.

tiny satisfying stitches

But then I realized that I tapered the sleeves before they were the correct length. And then I redid the taper with the elbow positioned where I thought it was supposed to be.

But I'd already bound the cuff, and in no way was I going to unpick that and redo all of those tiny, satisfying stitches (TM). So I marked the line, opened the part I needed to open, and redid the taper.

And now I have a lovely finished sleeve, I'm behind by one sleeve, and I'm going to bed. I have the other sleeve prepped to finish tomorrow night. Hopefully I'll only have to do it once.

Night, y'all.
