Nothing up my sleeve.
Do you see a theme developing lately? It's all surrounding this latest pullover sweater project. As you can see I am still being quite the dummy. My current issue is all about the sleeves. I have finished the front and the back, and quite frankly, I am wondering how many knitters decide to make vests when they get to this point in their sweater projects. The thought of making two sleeves at this point seems so booooorrrring! In fact, from now on I will always start a sweater by making one sleeve, then the back, then the next sleeve and end with the front. If I had done that, I'd be finished by now!!
The crazy thing about this sweater is that I created the back 
without a pattern, then found a pattern to create the front. Now I'm not quite surehow I'll pull off the sleeves - but sleeves I must!
I better keep the vodka at arms-length!
Uh, drunken knitting may not be such a great idea. I have seen the results and they are not too pretty! LOL!

How about knitting both sleeves at the same time? Feels like it takes forever but when you are done you are totally DONE! I hate knitting one sleeve and then realizing I have more more to go...kind of like socks?!

Sleeves could be the mindless knitting you need to do during great TV or movies.
Btw, I can't believe you started a sweater with no pattern. You go girl!

I think this is hilarious. And amazing. I could never start a sweater without lots of math and notes and a pattern. I can't wait to see how it all turns out.
