Longest part

I am at last at the yoke portion, though not yet at the tangled part, of my Tangled Yoke. These rows take the longest because they are working the sweater and both sleeves at the same time. I look forward to decreases and then some interesting cabling.

I like this stage of sweater construction because it looks like a sweater now. The downside is that I always expect this last bit to go faster because, hey it already looks like a sweater why isn't it done yet? It doesn't help that I know that as soon as it is mostly finished I will still have to wait for it to wash and block before I knit on the button bands and can wear the thing.

I wish I had Monday off and nothing to do but knit. Ah well, I'll have a sweater soon enough.
