Ah, proof that I am doing some knitting! Still plugging away on the Cable O's Vest. I'm so happy with how it looks, but the cotton is a bit of a challenge*. My hands start to bother me after about 2 or 3 rows and I have to put it down. I still think I can get to the armhole decreases by the weekend. I just might get this done by the end of the month! Matt will be thrilled!

I did look at some projects yesterday, but I didn't cast on anything new. I think I've finally hit UFO saturation. Everything I considered reminded me of an other project that I have already started.

I did work on an older UFO project from the closet. I worked a few rows on Matt's Sampler Cardigan. Having just finished my pullover, I was reminded how fun this pattern is to knit. I have one of fronts done and half of the other. It's a nice break from the Cable O's Vest. A good balance actually.

*Let me say that the original pattern uses Cascade 220, a favorite yarn. The pattern would've been a breeze to knit in the wool... sadly I have an odd compulsion to change yarns in a pattern, even if the yarn is a favorite. While I love the look of the cotton, in retrospect, the Cascade would've been an easier to knit choice.
