hooded pull over status report?

[pmcgary]

Is anyone out there done? Still working? Just sick of all that knit stitch?

I am on the sleeves right now...and into my last skeins of yarn..I hope the sleeves go fast or my hooded shirt will need a slight remodel.

I'm not sure if I can say I "officially" gave up on this or not,hehe..
I hate this yarn, I think it will be very heavy, why oh why did I choose this yarn? I wish I chose something that obviously had wool in it, I knew there was good reason why I only knit with natural fibers!!!

How far did you get before you 'set it aside?' I had to go back and see what yarn you used......

The peace fleece is also knitting up 'thick'...but I love it......I just hope I have enough to actually put a hood on it.

Rachel I hear ya. I bought wool but its certainly not "bulky" like it says, its a thin worsted IMO. And the monotonous boring brown. Why did I let my DH talk me in to brown? I havent made it to the sleeve split yet, still working my increases. If I wasn't doing a clap for the knitting olympics I'd probably try and finish this. As it is I think it will become a project for summer knitting at the park.

Yeah, I got about 4" or so past the underarms done. That damn homespun stinks, big time! I know I will eventually do this, I'm also making a Clapo right now too, :)
