Today (Thursday)’s knitting tally. From the green marker upwards. Rows 57 through 130 of the left jacket front. Up there near the TV remote you can see that I’ve started the v-neck shaping. The rest is a loooong stockinette rectangle. I’m making this thing oversize, and the back took just about 2 balls. I’m sure I’ll finish the front pieces at 1 ball each, and then there’s the sleeves. Once the main body is complete there is a ribbed band in a contrasting color (no buttonholes though), and then a matching hat. Is it me, or am I more productive when I’m posting my tally each day?

Today’s Knitting Tally- starting at the green marker, I did row 13 through 56 of the first of the 2 fronts of the Lion Brand Homespun jacket. If you want to figure out scale, the remote is about 5 or 6 inches I think. This jacket is an awful lot of stockinette stitch!

Today’s Knitting Tally (Tuesday)

This is what miles and miles of stockinette stitch look like. Thankfully I finished the back of the jacket tonight. Instead of binding off for the shoulders on both sides I did short rows and will do the same on the front pieces so I can do a 3ndl BO to make a nicer look on the shoulders. That tiny green fleck on the top right is where I started tonight at, so I’ve done everything up from that point (48 rows) and then the 13 rows of the 1st front piece, seen at the right. Total for today: 5124 sts.

Hmm. That’s funny. It felt more like 5125.
