Steek Monster

I'm up to the tiny armholes and neck opening on my steek class swatch. The armholes are going to have crocheted steeks (which require an odd number of stitches, including the border stitches) and the neck is going to have a handsewn steek (with an even number of stitches). I'm not going to do machine-sewn steeks in class, since it would require me to assume that everyone has access to a machine and knows how to use one. When I laid out my work to have a look, I realized I'd created a monster.
