OK, so I kinda slacked and didn't post about my sweater for a few days. So to make up for it, here's a picture of the whole thing as it is right now. ^_^ Shoulders are seamed, and I've begun the right sleeve (the sleeve I had to rip all the way out way the left, so when I decided to try again I opted to go with the right side first...

I'm counting on knitting between my two classes tomorrow and not having too much reading to do for Tuesday. Actually, I know that I have a lot of reading to do for ( Read more... )

So today was not the most productive knitting day (didn't even finish my second ball of yarn). Orientation took FOREVER (much closer to four hours than the 2-3 they'd originally said), and then Tara and I grabbed lunch in the mall (parking was mad! just like Christmas time, I swear!). I started knitting once I got home, but only did about three ( Read more... )
