Yup, More Zipo

Zipowithsleeve

Keeping my commitment -- sleeve inserted and placket knitted.

What's left: knit right sleeve, insert right sleeve, knit neckband, weave in a million ends*

* Million ends courtesy of Rowan. Small yardage combined with knots in one-third of the balls used so far. Rowan, you're giving Debbie Bliss a run for her money.

Is that a sleeve I see before me? Great job!! Keep going, you're almost there.

Kathleen said:

Don't those knots on those itty bitty skeins make you nuts? Looking good though!

lisa said:

Two words: Russian join.

Cordelia said:

Nice! What a great sweater that's becoming!

yahaira said:

holy crap! the end is near! the end of your sweater that is. you're so almost done, which means guilt free shopping at stitches ; )

jacqueline said:

don't you just hate that 'millions of ends in every ball' marketing strategy that rowan and debbie bliss sometimes employ!

it is looking great though and the end is nigh!

Jackie said:

Looking good, Jody, looking good!

Agnes said:

One more ... one more to go!

Jody said:

GO GO GO GO, knit that sweater! It'll be done in no time. I had to recover for a day or two before I could muster the gusto to sew ends in.

pioggia said:

Don't we all hate knots? I hope yo'eu finish next sleeve without any of those.

Melissa said:

Sweater looks fabulous!!! Curses on those knots, though. We've all been there. Too aggravating.

Julia said:

Yikes. That sucks. I can ususally count on ASC not to have knots in it. Wishing you "weaving in" karma,
