Pick a sleeve, already!
I need your help! Which one is better, cap (left) or flutter (right)?
(Variation instructions here!)
If you’re knitting the collared version, there’s a nice stabilizing trick here.

I like the right side sleeve the most. (My right side, your left) I think that suits the rest of the cardigan the best, but then I have to admit that I’m not that found of puffy sleeves.

Ooo. I like the flutter sleeve.

I agree, CAP!

Flutter!

Flutter.

The cap is a bit more ‘tailored’/finished looking, but I like both!
July 31st, 2010 at 12:53 pm
I like the flutter, too.

I like the CAP better; think it suits the shape of the sweater. Have you tried looking at the pic you posted vs the mirror? Might give you a better perspective!

the flutter! i love a loose sleeve, of course, i have fat arms and you do not. both are incredibly cute.

I’m voting for cap. Super cute either way though. :-)
July 31st, 2010 at 10:21 pm
I vote flutter.
July 31st, 2010 at 10:34 pm
flutter, right

Cap! Flutter would look great on a longer sleeve (elbow onwards) I think. So, we’re not much use to you I’m affraid ;-)

cap
August 1st, 2010 at 4:08 pm
Very cute! I vote for flutter.
August 1st, 2010 at 6:01 pm
Cap. Definitely!

[…] forget to give me your two cents on my sleeve choice for the That Girl! KAL. The flutters are in the lead, but it could still go either […]

It might be a stretch, but could you add a section that allows one to use either sleeve? I prefer the look of the cap sleeve, but having somewhat fleshy upper arms, I’m afraid it might be a bit tight and would probably want to try making the flutter if I were making the cardi for myself. Just my two cents!

You are one of those rare creatures that can rock a cap so I think you should go for it.

I like the flutter, a LOT.

Emily, the “Variation instructions” link above gives instructions for either sleeve variation.

I found your blog through the flikr group, and am checking out your variations and subscribing!
You take great pictures (as I browse backwards) thanks for sharing.
