Knitting won out for most of the evening.
The end result? The front I was working on is done, up to the shoulder shaping. The best news of that? The second front! That means that the back and both fronts are almost done - up to the shoulder shaping! That means about 4 more rows on each front, two sleeves, some seams and a button band. Which also means that there is a very good chance that I will finish this sweater while the Flame is lit!
It also means that I had a lot of italics in this evening's entry and I don't know why. Probably because I need to sleep!
A few other topics: I have been linked on what is evidently a popular Russian message board here, which is probably pretty cool but I can't determine entirely what it means. I got a translation on Babelfish but it doesn't entirely make sense. I think someone thinks I should create a separate archive of F.O.'s, so I guess I should consider that.

Lots of options - I LOVE seeing peoples FOs on their blog. Makes you feel like you can get to know them a little better by seeing what they like to knit.
Did you ever pick up your stitch markers? JON, you need to pick up the stitch markers! :)
