WIP Wednesday: same title as last week (damn)

Last week’s title being ‘oxide cardigan plus WOOORDDDDSSSS‘, in case you weren’t here for that one.

Oxide cardigan:

Going well, though it doesn’t actually look much different to last week.

Cardigan is getting there! #knitting #WIP

Still, it’s just about time to start the bottom edge ribbing. I’m thinking something like mistake rib, just to be a bit more interesting than boring old 1×1. But then I’m not sure how I’d do the tubular cast-off and I just don’t know if I can cope without a tubular cast-off.

I’m also approaching the classic panic-point of omg omg am I going to have enough yarn left to do the sleeves halp. This is the point at which the whole thing might end up stuffed into the cupboard with all my other WIPs.

Gameface on. I can do it. The most important thing is to get the ribbing and the button band done. If I end up with short sleeves, I end up with short sleeves.

Why yes I am whimpering like a dog who’s heard the word ‘bathtime’.

Words:

My NaNoWriMo story has run face-first into a wall and is now sliding slowly down the brickwork. I should be able to get the last 5000 words out before it hits the floor, but it’s going to hurt. I also reached the zenith of my blogging career by writing a series of blog posts about… blogging. I HAVE MADE IT. Soon I’ll be able to do posts about blogging, posts about blogging about blogging, and ‘this time in this blog’s history’ posts and never have to produce a piece of original content ever again.

Actually, that would suck. I won’t do that. :D

  1. Good luck! I’m sure you have enough yarn for the sleeves. Probably.

    Short sleeves are actually super fashionable. And I do know the feeling … it’ll all work out. You’ll see. *ooommmmssss*

    • I’ll be fine as long as they get to 3/4 length – I almost always roll my sleeves up, but I do love to stretch them over my thumbs when my hands get cold.
      Thanks for the oommmmms. ;)

    It will work out … fingers crossed :)

  4. I always have that panic about sleeve yarn too. Doesn’t seem to actually matter how much yarn I have left.
