Sat 9 Oct 2010
After two weeks of light frost overnight, the temperature is suddenly back in the 80’s today. I’ve been trying to just appreciate the day, especially as it’s most likely the last warm weekend we’ll have this year. Of course, sitting in the sun on an 80 degree day is not always the best time for knitting, but I managed to attach the first sleeve to the sweater.
I was hoping that I’d have two sleeves to attach today, but I’m currently knitting the second sleeve for the third time. I wasn’t happy with the way the colors were working out, so I’ve pulled back twice, but now it’s working perfectly.
And, theoretically, this means that I’ll have another new sweater when the weather remembers that it’s October next week.
Happy weekend!
I have had so many non-sweater projects in the way of a sweater. Your recent posts have served to whet my appetite. And with this sweater turning out so smashingly, it only gets more intense!
Third times the charm! I so very wish I had the patience to knit sweaters, but I am too easily distracted to finish them in any reasonable amount of time. 🙂
The weather’s just been gorgeous lately in my neck of the woods, too! I can’t say I mind that it’s forgotten to be October.
Your sweater reminds me that I have a couple to finish…
