As if a week could go by without another progress report on my NaKniSweMo. I have officially achieved one entire sleeve. (People keep saying stuff like “ooh, sleeves go so quickly!” This is a bunch of dirty lies. They go quickly relative to the sweater body, but not quickly in general. This is a difficult concept to get my head around.) That’s one out of two finished sleeves, which means I still need to knit Sleeve 2 and the yoke and then steek it and pick up the button band, and. . .basically, I am half-resigned to not finishing it exactly in November. That is no longer the point.
The point is, the weather outside is frightful, and I’d like something warm and sheepy and cable-y to keep me warm, like, yesterday.
(Well. The point is also that there are lots of other awesome things I want to knit and can’t start until I finish this sweater, but that is a post for another day.)
