Finally, a fashion trend I can revel in.
I followed the Westknits tutorial, mostly.
Some modifications are needed if using lady sweaters.Men's sleeves join the body perpendicularly; women's have a tapered sleeve.

| These are females |
If the angle isn't too narrow, just follow the tutorial, which is what I did for this sweater.
The gray one needs the sleeves picked loose and reattached upside down, ie with the shoulder where the armpit was, otherwise the extra fabric causes lumpage in the crotchal region.

| I cut the neck out and hemmed it as a dickey, but she wouldn't wear it. |
 |
| I think I messed up here, because I ended up with ear flaps. |
 |
| They're not too noticeable after being sewed down. |
 |
| Had to take in the waist too |
 |
Daaaaa!

Noodly arms should not be confused with a lack of enthusiasm. The Kid wore these into public, on purpose, and would wear them again if they weren't in the laundry.
