sweater update w/ new photos

    Once again, I am updating you on my sweater. Sometimes it must seem that I do nothing else. I am just so excited about this sweater, I can't even express in words. Last night, I finished the left sleeve! There was much SQUEEEing of pleasure!


    I was originally going to put a thumb hole in it, then I changed my mind. Well, last night when I tried it on for Hubs to see, and he wanted me to put them in. So I decided I would, after all.


    Here's a photo of the completed sleeve, with the beginnings of the other one:

And here are a couple featuring the thumb hole:

 

 

    And that's all for today, folks!

my left arm

    I guess "sleeve" would be a more appropriate word, but "my left arm" sounds cooler. I've been knitting and knitting, and here's the progress on my left sleeve:

     And just for shits and giggles, here's a closer view:

    I've completed five decrease repeats, and currently working towards the sixth decease round. Woot! I am supremely excited about the fact that there will be no seams whatsoever to sew after I'm done! I've some a long way since my first cardigan; which had five separate pieces to be sewn together.


    If I had chosen the other option for the sleeves, there would be just two ten stitch long seams to sew. Either way, it's not bad!


    I sure hope you, my dear readers, aren't getting too tired of me tooting my own horn here. This is such a thrill for me, I don't think you can even imagine. The final thrill will be to get a photo of me wearing the finished sweater!!


    Right now, I'm watching vintage Doctor Who episodes on Netflix, and after the current episode, I will be taking a short break, to get some dishes washed. And perhaps to put a load of laundry in the washer. Then it will be back to Doctor Who and knitting. At least until it's time to put the laundry in the dryer. TTFN!
