Knitting Olympics Progress

I've knitted almost non-stop all weekend. It's been fun. Watched a lot of episodes of "Lost" with Brent while I was working along.

Here's a picture of a sleeve (finished until I attach to the body and complete the shoulder) and the left front (in progress).

Cabling without a cable needle is the best thing ever. This would have taken forever if I hadn't known about that technique.

When I grow up, I want to knit like you.

Your knit fu is strong. Pretty.

Thanks :) I'm anxious to get through all the boring stockinette stuff I have to do now for the back and front. It does go faster than the cables, but isn't nearly as satisfying.

I sense that the Knit side of the Force is strong with this one.

That's gorgeous!

I can't come up with anything wittier than the other comments, so I will just say, looking good! :)

I love that pattern. I need to learn how to cable. Is your hand sore?

Cool! I'm so impressed. I couldn't do Knitting Olympics this year (what with moving and the bar exam next week), but I wish I could.

We'll have to get together and knit sometime--especially now that we're neighbors!
