Pirate Progress

Well, the pirate sweater is nearing completion! The front is done and here's a pic:



And Sleeve #1...



I added one more stripe to give DS a little more time to outgrow the sweater :/ I must be getting faster - that sleeve took no time at all. Of course it is just stockinette and I REALLY REALLY like to purl (yeah I know how weird that sounds!) I cast on for Sleeve #2 last night and I'm hoping to finish up before the end of 2006.

DS is getting pretty excited now that he sees his sweater taking shape. He really liked the Iceland yarn I used for my MD scarf and has been giving the needles a try...

Happy holidays!
