MOTS
(more of the same, for those not familiar with the abbreviation.)
I'm about midway up the sleeve steeks, I think. I was feeling kind of puny yesterday (intestinal upset - you'll forgive me for not providing details) which translated into lots of knitting time. By about 8:30 last night, I was actually sick of knitting. A temporary phenomenon, I assure you - when I posed Roscalie for her picture this morning, it was all I could do to not sit down and resume knitting. I'm getting anxious to cut that front steek!
I'm pretty sure I'm going to run out of yarn. Not only from making the body of the sweater longer, but it seems I've misplaced a ball of yarn as well. Now the only question is whether I will simply order more yarn from Virtual Yarns or a kit for another sweater as well!
I loaned my pregnant sister-in-law a book full of Dale baby patterns, hoping she would select a fair-isle pattern. Of course, she went with a solid-color textured cardigan.
I'm still messing around with the Baby Surprise Jacket (for the same sister-in-law) and it has temporarily replaced my sock as my travel/soccer knitting.
