Deer and Doe Melilot take 2!

January 15, 2017

Here is my second finished Deer and Doe Melilot! I need to take some photos of it on me still. There’s a weird fitting issue on the sleeves, but it’s still totally wearable. It might need a bit of a forward shoulder adjustment or something, but not sure how that would work with this type of sleeve?

I used this tutorial for the collar and it was painless. I also needed to look up a tutorial for the sleeve plackets, because the instructions were really lacking. I used this one. Otherwise, I just followed the Deer and Doe instructions.

Anyway, join me next time as I try to make bialys, something I can’t even find a poor imitation of.
