A Sweater Deadline


The washing machine has been going non stop all day long, and that beast of a laundry pile just will not die. So, I'm done for the day with 4 loads still waiting and more to be added in tomorrow. Someday I will find peace with this whole laundry thing. Okay, so maybe not. But it's 9:30, and I'd rather be knitting than folding.

I've set myself a lofty goal...to finish this sweater in time for it to be Levi's birthday present. Yikes. That means a lot of knitting between now and Saturday. I can totally do this. Right?
I did at least lower my initial expectations. I was going to aim for a matching hat by then as well. Considering it took me 2 weeks to knit Sophia's sweater, I think it will be a miracle if I finish just the sweater by then. I only started it Friday. Better get to knitting. Wish me luck!

For curious knitters it's the Limepop Sweater.

  2. Go you! I'm trying to finish a second blanket by Christmas and I think THAT's a lofty goal. And mountain laundry just is. No matter how many loads we take away, there will always be more. So enjoy your knitting!!

    1. :) Totally agreed. If there is one constant in this world it is laundry. Too bad we don't live near enough to have a cup of tea and knit together!
