Oh don't worry, Martha. I'm nowhere near finished!

I'm giving myself until the end of November (make that December) to finish my sweater. I'm almost done with the actual body part of the sweater. Next will be the sleeves and then finishing.

Whoops!

I posted my progress on my own blog but forgot to post on this one too.

Here is my progress through 5 out of 8 sets of raglan increases. I managed to almost complete one set of raglan increases last night at SnB.

I also suceeded in strongarming Knelley to join our KAL to encourage her to complete Tempting. Hurray!

Mr. Greenjean...better known as Ms. Pink Fair Isle

After a somewhat rocky start, I am glad to say that I cast on for my Mr. Greenjean's sweater this afternoon!!!!!

I had trouble with the set-up row and could not figure out how I cast on the correct number of stitches, followed the pattern I had originally printed out, but still ended up with the wrong number of stitches! I went back online after dinner and, lo and behold, there had been a change made to the pattern in the interim. I cast on the stitches again, started the set-up row and it was smooth sailing from there.

I will post a picture tomorrow when I am further along.

I've Made Up My Mind.......

Even though I got more votes for the Summer's End cardigan on my blog,Costumechick and Jennsquared made really good points in their comments.

I think I need a little break from lace and I will be making Mr. Greenjeans...except it will not be green. It will be a done in a really pretty pink yarn (Wisdom Yarn Fair Isle-Raspberry).
