Sleeves

All that knitting gave me time to think...that I really want to finish this sweater.

I am making good speed on it though not spectacular speed.  Protosleeve.

It's about seven inches long and I am pretty much knitting till I have all the decreases done so it fits my arm.  It's not a technical process or even remotely mathy like many knitters do.  The really good knitters do the math and work it out, but I find I just keep knitting till the sleeve fits somewhere down my arm.  Since I am most often hoping for a 3/4 sleeve,  I have some leeway.  I do hope to be close to completion of sleeve one by the end of the day.  Or at the very least, close to the ribbing.

This morning is sewing though.  I cut a lovely piece of linen for pants and two different shirts late last week, and I mean to do a significant amount of sewing today.  Pants and one shirt is what I am hoping for.

I could keep chatting along but rather than chatting, its time to prop my tablet and turn on the audiobook (Busman's Holiday by Dorothy Sayers) and get right to work.
