Sleeves, Kinda
When we last checked in with my Dollar and a Half Cardigan I had just discovered two major errors. I was finished with the body and one side. Since then I’ve finished the second side and have got a good 8 inches of two sleeves finished.
Will I finish this sweater before the Ravelympics start during the opening ceremony of the Olympics tomorrow night? No way in hell. I’m saying it right now. There is no way I can finish those sleeves, attach everything, and knit the front button bands, by tomorrow night.
I know what you are saying. ‘Allyson, you should have figured that out a long time ago.’ And you are exactly right. What was I thinking? I am one woman! Frantically knitting a lot a sweater!
Geez, Allyson. Geez.
So what is the plan? I want to start my Hoodie Devoted! But I lent out the needles I need for that pattern. Which sucks because I need this hood!
Hoodie Devoted
I mean, come on. Everyone needs this hood. So I don’t really have a plan. WHY AM I SO UNPREPARED?! It’s really unlike me. I’m blaming Dollar and a Half. She has been zapping up all of my energy.
What do you have planned for the Ravelympics?! And I hope you are more prepared than I am!
the day before the Ravelympics and I’m feeling rather unprepared myself! I still have to ball up all my yarn! Guess I know what I’m doing tonight…We can do it!

We are so in the same boat, though your boat is much more ambitious. I really wanted to have my stupid 3 year socks done by the Opening Ceremonies.

I’m sure you’ll love the carid once it’s done, and all the trouble will be worth it!! Gotta get the needles for the hood, it’s going to be gorgeous.
