I started on them in Hawaii. I didn't have as much time to knit as I thought I would (I know, but I did actually think I would have time!), but I did manage to at least start them. And I've been working on them since we've been back. Evidence:
I'm not gonna lie. It's been a struggle. That said, I spent lots of quality time with Oscar's sleeves this past weekend, and...I feel like we've bonded. :) At this point, I have two half-completed sleeves. Woo-hoo! I have a thing about working on pairs of things at the same time. It's really the only way to ensure I end up with a completed pair of anything (I am being realistic). I mean, seriously.
And so, the saga continues, but at least progress has been made. I think we have turned an important corner in our relationship, and I look forward to spending more time together. I can't wait to be able to wear this thing! Rowan Felted Tweed - you are so smushy and wonderful!
smushy, tweedy loveOn a different note: Tomorrow is Election Day! Please, please vote, people (if you haven't already) and make sure everyone you know does the same!

Keep going!! Once the sleeves are done, you get to do the fun cabling!!
I hear you! I do the same thing. But hey, you're soooo close now. it's going to be awesome!
i am going to make you knit non stop when we meet up, it will be therapeutic to get it done. and it has been cold enough to actually wear knits...i have worn my Bandwagon (aka FLS) 2 days in a row. Now to get pics.
oh, the ring...just perfect. like you.
Oscar's sleeves look great so far!
P.S. I won't forget to vote tomorrow :)
isn't it funny how sometimes, something just gives way and the malingering WIP just starts flowing to the finish? i keep hoping that will happen with my minimalist cardigan....
i know what you mean, sometimes wip's have to sit around for a bit. those sleeves are looking good. Ya almost there!
Such a pretty color! I love your rings!!
It's coming along nicely! I love the color. It's not how fast a project is finished. It's how much you enjoyed the overall knit.
Keep trucking! Once the sleeves are done you will be in the home stretch.
Oh, this is going to be a beauty~ lovely tweedy goodness!
I know this is late. But I do have to admit I love that oscar, even though he can be a pill at times.
That is so funny--i started mine about a year ago too! I keep meaning to pick it up again...thanks for the reminder.
