Monday MondayI worked both days this weekend again, and it was a little harder than last weekend... mostly because things were SO slow that time just ticked by slowly. But I did get paid... yippie!!! But I have definitely decided I'll need to cut back my hours somewhat- we'll see what I'm scheduled for next month, but I'm thinking 5-6 days/month is probably my max.I still haven't washed the fronts of the cardigan yet- sometime this week I'll be home long enough to do a load of laundry! I'm still crossing my fingers that the fronts will shrink approximately the same amount as the swatches- 12% lengthwise. In the meantime, I'm making steady progress on the sleeve: 
I keep having to rewrite the pattern for this as I go along. If I had followed along with the pattern as written in Knitter's Handy, my sleeve would have been large enough in the upper arm for BOTH of my arms to fit in. So I cut out the last 10 increases... I think it'll all work out well. But thankfully, since I'm doing it in the round, I can easily try it on as I go, and was able to adjust things as necessary. If life ever calms down a bit (hah!) I need to FINISH SOME PROJECTS!!! Ugh. Maybe when it's cooler outside... maybe then I won't be so overwhelmed by the idea of "wool." Cricket was overwhelmed by the idea of the birds and squirrels outside this morning:
