in the wings

I'm humming along on the Starlight cardigan, but I'll wait until I finish to post. I'm almost done. I will likely finish after this weekend, though, and the weekends are the only time of the week that I am home when there is any daylight. So I may not have photos until next weekend. These depths of winter are already getting a bit tedious.

I got this happy package in the mail yesterday, though. It's the Dale of Norway yarn and pattern for the 2010 Olympic sweater. I'm making the smallest adult size for my son. How long could it take?! Sure it's sportweight yarn but there's so little colorwork. Piece of cake. I don't know about finishing it by the beginning or end of the Olympics, but it'll fit him for quite awhile nonetheless. I'm not really a sports watcher (except my own kids) usually, but there's something about the Olympics that gets me. I love the excitement. And February will definitely need some of that around here.
