I knit a bit more on the body of the Linger sweater to get to the end of the grey skein but then it was time to switch over to sleeves. I will work those up and then go back to the body till the sweater is long enough.
The interesting part of sleeves is going to be the mental adjustment that I have to make between knitting the Half Fisherman's Rib fat versus knitting it in the round. It is mentally easy flat. There is a nice rest row and no trouble remembering just where you are. In the round, it gets trickier. The rest row remains but you are always on the right side and it is going to take much more work to be sure if it is a rest row or a pattern stitch row.
Still, it ought to go fast. The rows add up fast. Inches happen even when it seems like you have hardly knit at all.
With a bit of luck, there will be at least one sleeve done before Monday and with a bit of effort, two.
