I had the chance to make it out to the Toronto reading of Yarn Harlot’s new book last night, which was a lovely evening of pretty much every knitter I’ve ever met in the area. It was also a chance to get lots of knitting done, and – oh man, you guys.

This is the “home stretch” portion of this sweater, although I’m pretty sure that seven inches of ribbing on 2.5mm needles isn’t going to go as quickly as I think it will. I’ve tried on the finished (well, “finished” – please note the bright blue yarn tacking the shoulder seams together) body multiple times, and it totally fits the way it should before blocking, and I am ecstatic.
