Thank goodness the weather is back to normal for this time of year. I might just get this wool sweater done before the next heat wave. That'll be it for wool for the summer then (not including Mermaid). I'll focus on lighter weight/summery projects after I finish this up.
I'm much much happier with these sleeves. Matt's 12" biceps are tricky. I did a 14" sleeve to start, but it didn't look proportional to the sweater, so I frogged back and made them 16". It'll be a nice relaxed cardigan for him (and let's not count that I've now attempted these sleeves 5 times... but I'm pretty sure this is it. Just have to do the other one!).
My Mermaid is also progressing (sorry, forgot to get a photo) and the second sleeve is well underway. This might be some kind of record for me. All this finishing up of older projects. Kind of fun too! (however, I'm going to have to start thinking about my sweater storgage soon. I'm not sure where I'm going to put all these finished projects... it's just as bad as finding room for all my stash!)
