1. it's 52" around and 26" long, and was knit in one piece to the underarms 2. my hands started being vaguely unhappy with knitting, due to a combination of pregnancy and medications, and so there were many days when I did not knit at all, and other days where I knit 2-3 rows and had to stop. :-(
The back is now done and I only have a few more pattern repeats on one of the front portions, so I hope to be hitting the sleeves within a week or two. My new goal for completion is mid-April, when we will attend the sheep festival where I bought the wool I used to spin the yarn last year. If I can get from two pounds of carded wool to a sweater within the year, I'll be pretty happy.
I have *just about* finished the back of my olympic sweater. Then the fronts from the armpits up, then the sleeves... *sigh*
