I am almost done knitting the second sleeve of the ski sweater, but I am not almost done. I have to knit sleeve #3. This is because I like my elbows to bend when wearing a sweater. I got the first sleeve done and decided it was too tight and too short, so I ripped what I had on sleeve 2 and started it over again with bigger needles. I also re-wrote where the increases were and increased the length by 1 inch. I have already ripped the "finished" sleeve and washed to yarn to remove the kinks.
I also spent some time spinning. I want to try a cabled yarn. I have 8 oz of a superwash undyed wool that I split into 4 even pieces. I am spinning each as a single, then will ply them. I will to cable, but if it doesn't work, I should have some nice 2 ply.
