All I want for Christmas is . . .

. . . to reach the ribbing on the second sleeve of my slate Wondrella cardigan. And I'm going to be disappointed.

I know that it's a busy time of year, and that I've got more to do this year than previously, but I'm still in disbelief at just how long this is taking. I'm sure that the first sleeve, which I finished some weeks ago, wasn't this tortuous.

Current mood

I have knitted through films. I have knitted through costume dramas. I have knitted through podcasts. And I've still got a long way to go.

The second sleeve laid over the first

Obviously the rounds get shorter as the sleeve narrows, but even in terms of total number of stitches I'm less than halfway through. Sigh.

So all that remains is to wish everyone who celebrates a very Merry Christmas. And if you are trying to finish a project for the 25th, may you have more success than I will!
