Just keep knitting...
So after dutifully working on my sweater for nearly the whole winter vacation that I had, I decided to take a break. I am now making a short project. It is a Harry Potter scarf/head band thing that is in Hufflpuff colors so that I can relax and do something brainless. Then I am going to finish the sweater before school starts again and once again all my knitting must be short small travel sized projects like the wrist warmers I am going to start once I am done with the scarf/ head band. ^_^ I am excited about school though and can't wait to start and be one more semester closer to my Bachelors and my law degree. PARTY!!! lol.

Updates
Working on the edging to the duster as I now call it. The bottom of the duster/sweater is a lace knit two together yarn over combo that I think will look great. The collar will have the design and I am thinking of adding it to the sleeve as a bell accent but I haven't decided yet. The sleeve accent will be the last to be done though as it is going to be an after thought...Maybe even a pocket or two for small light items like chapstick or gum or something... Who knows. Pics to follow soon!!!!

Sweater
So I've done more on the sweater. Both sleeves are done. Here are some pics:
Just finished to separate for the sleeves
Casting on the sleeves
Working on the rest of the body of the sweater with all the yarn left it may become a duster

The sweater now has sleeves!!
So I've separated for the sleeves and have done the required length on the body. I have PLENTY of yarn left over at this point so I decided to start the sleeves now and just use what's left to do the length. I'm hoping that I can make it duster length even with the lacy collar I want to do.
Here I am wearing it before starting the sleeve. I had to buy needles for it, but this way I can leave the stitches live on the body and continue on to the length I want after doing the sleeves.
