finish knitting Mariah

I think this may become sweater #6 in my Year of Sweaters project. I can’t find a suitable yarn to replace the discontinued yarn used in the pattern for #5, and I can’t justify spending the money on the yarn I want for the previously scheduled #6… plus, it’d be awesome to finally get this done. It’s like a dual goal now!

I’m not that far away from being done. I had to rip the right front a bunch of times and it just got to be too frustrating, so I put it away.

I’m hoping to finish it right after we move…

...so I can start working on all the other “abandoned” UFOs.

• back
• left front
• 1st sleeve (almost)

• 2nd sleeve (nearly 2/3 complete)
• right front (started, 4/9 of the way through the cabling, could likely finish the whole thing this weekend if I happened to feel motivated.)

• revisit 1st sleeve to do decreases (I should really just do this and get it over with this weekend)
• knitting and sewing the whole thing together
• hood
• zipper (need to buy a good zipper… suggestions? Ideally this would be one of those zippers that can zip from both ends, but could be a regular zipper too)
