Here are the almost finished sleeves! I wanted to finish the second one last night, but I just got too tired. The uncertainty of the New Hampshire primary results kept me up for a while though. I don't know what it is, but political talk shows and talk TV make me a very productive knitter. I have no idea what it is. This year is also the first year that I'm actually paying attention to the candidates and the races and all that. It's pretty fun. It's kind of like sports! These sleeves really are a breeze though. A nice change from the difficult-for-no-reason body of the sweater. I originally bound off the first one using a regular bind off, and the seam wouldn't even go around my upper arm! So, I ripped it out and used a sewn cast off so the seam would be nice and stretchy to sew onto the body. Tonight, I'm hoping to finish this sleeve, and maybe get all of the seaming done!
WOW! I hope that you get that sleeve and seaming completed.
Sometimes watching the politics is like sports, and makes for great knitting time! So do PSU's hockey games. Good knitting there too. Hahah.
BTW-like the new look!
