Look it! Look it!!! I’m so excited! It’s finally done. 20 days flat. I’ll get good pictures tomorrow, but for now, here are some really happy web cam pictures. :)

EEP! Owls!

Front!

Owls back!

I’m so proud. I think this is the coolest thing I’ve ever knit.

Turkey & Ribbing

I didn’t finish the sweater in time to wear. :(

But, I did get to the ribbing, and I think I’ll be able to finish it tomorrow since I don’t have anything else going on. Here’s the new progress:

Sleeve Ribbing

We had Turkey lunch at Kevin’s parents. It was a good time, and the food was excellent. Then we went to see the movie “Ninja Assassin” which was exactly what I needed to get my mind off of life.

We’re heading out to his friends’ in a bit, and that should be good too. Late night turkey extravaganza!

Soooo close.

I need 52 rows to start the ribbing on the 2nd sleeve. I’m hoping I can wing it to wear tomorrow… We’ll see.

Soooo close.

Kevin came to knit night with me. It was fun, and there were only four of us there, including him, so it was a nice way to slowly introduce him. :)

Broken. :(

So, my car broke today. I really hope that it’s not something terrible, or something that won’t be covered under warranty – because I have $0.

My photo of the day is Jaws on the tow truck:

Other than that, today was good. Had lunch at Pi with the knitters then hung out with Kevin the rest of the day. He drove Paisley & I to Jessie’s since I’m staying there tonight because I’m car-less. Then we went and had dinner with his parents, and headed back to Jessie’s and hung out. Krispy Kreme doughnuts were involved. Now it’s time to knit. I have the 2nd sleeve down to the elbow. So close to finishing!

This is a 2.5 day week. I’m really excited about the holiday. :D

Sleeve is done!

And it is fantastic – just look:

Finished Sleeve

I also lit my furnace pilot all by myself tonight. Maybe I’ll take a picture of that tomorrow…

I really hope to get it done in time to wear Wednesday night… We’ll see I guess. I have heaps of other things to do in that time as well… *sigh*
