I'm making progress on my apricot sweater. I don't often get to do much knitting all at once but it's amazing how a little bit here and a little bit there adds up. Getting the body of the sweater done feels so good. It's a little snug around my shoulders right now but will stretch a bit when I block it and I don't want it to send up looking sloppy. I'm working on the button bands now. The pattern calls for four buttons but I have a set of three I wanted to use so I'm changing the button hole spacing to work with them. I'm a little worried I might run out of yarn before I finish the sleeves (which is why I'm doing the button bands first). I've got a small ball of the orange yarn leftover and I think I could do some stripes at the cuffs if I need to. I'm getting so excited about actually wearing this sweater. It should be just right for spring.
