You are smart to recognize the problem and then....stop and fix it! I can't tell you how many times I kept knitting, hoping the problem would magically heal itself. To my sorrow.

excellent video. I had got about one third down the sleeve before deciding that it looked ugly so I am going to unravel and start again.

Your video is so very clear and helpful! I'm not sure how much yarn I have left from knitting the body of a homespun sweater - this will enable me to use what yarn is left in the most efficient way whilst making the sleeves. Thank you very much!
