Knit to the (Zithro)max!
Hooray for antibiotics. I just took the pill a few hours ago (7 or 8?) and already I feel tons better, although I am coughing a bit more.
So after work, TiVo had "Waiting for Guffman" and "The Music Man" ready for me, so that meant that Dad's sweater grew some.
I have to say... it's astounding how fast a sweater grows when it's on US 13 needles! I'm already past the armholes, as you can see... I'm going to have to put the back on holders very soon so I can figure out the saddle! So much excitement...
(And yes, I am knitting alternate balls of yarn every other RS row. You only see one in the photo because the first ball just ran out. I only used one for the ribbing, and I think that's the ball I did the swatch from, too, which is why there's more left on this ball...)
In other news, I got an exit row seat for my flight to Seattle on Tuesday. I don't think I'll knit on the plane (there's little elbow room as it is) but it'll be nice to have the extra legroom! I'm already checked in for my flight. Isn't that just weird? Anyhow, I am wondering just what kind of stash-enhancement will occur in the PNW... I have to pick up yarn for two gift-scarves I must make, so hopefully I can at least find that!
