• 1/9/07 -- almost done with the winding. SHould start swatching by week’s end.

• 1/7/08 -- The kit arrived! I’ll start winding this week and will likely wait to officially cast on until I wrap up a few pairs of socks on the needles.

-I just ordered the kit!

• 6/29/08 -- i finished the neckband and have started in on the yoke. i started the neck with a provisional cast on with the intention of hemming the neck.

• 7/7/08 -- frogged it and am starting over. The neck was way too big. Am giving up on the hemmed neck idea and am now following the pattern instructions. I also had a problem keeping good tension during the 3+ color rows. Will need to come up with a better technique than dropping one strand until needed. 7-22-08 -- almost finished with the color work. I am glad I frogged it. The neck is much better this go around and my tension is far more consistent. 7/25/08 -- finished the colorwork!

1/29/2012 -- after a long hibernation, I am working on this again. about an inch or two past the armholes. Reckon I’ll finish by the end of March.
