I survived the spring of sleeves!
Although don't get too excited. I still need to seam the projects and do the finishing details.
That takes them to full-pieced sweaters, though, so I decided it was totally OK to cast on my new project: Sylvi. And because Sylvi is done in bulky yarn, it's knitting up very quickly.
One pattern modification to Sylvi (minus those rough starts in the cable that I'm now calling a design element). The pattern says to start with the sleeves. I'm not doing that to myself. So I'm jumping to the back panel, and then going to the sleeves at the end, like I always do. Because nope nope nope. I can't take more sleeves after just having done sleeves for months.
Lesson learned: Just because something may be boring, don't skip it to get to the fun stuff. Because otherwise, in order to actually finish what you started, you're going to end up with lots and lots of boring stuff.
