It's simple knitting, no colour work, no cables, no lace just round after round of knitting to make a warm, comfy sweater. I know some Knitters dread endless rounds of mindless knitting but I love it. So, after a week and a half of knitting here it is all squished onto one long circular needle.
It always surprises me how big (sigh....) the sweater looks once the stitches are spread out onto 3 circular needles so it can be tried on to see if it fits.
It appears that it does. I have been modifying the pattern as I have been knitting to make it more fitted. So far so good.

Looks perfect! I'm not usually a fan of mindless knitting but it's the right choice for knitting with a group. I get easily distracted and usually make a mess of anything more complicated :)
How fun! I am definitely not a sweater knitter so am always impressed by those who are!
It fits perfectly, obviously you are getting the shaping just right! I don't particularly like mindless knitting, but I can understand the appeal, it can be lulling and like meditation.
This is awesome! I always have to alter all of my clothing as well..
It looks like it's coming out perfectly.
I used to read those cozy mysteries, too, but now I prefer something darker. I really the Scandinavian mysteries that are so popular now.
A great fit upon you.
