Pink cardigan - me made May progress

I'm a  bit late in posting this because this cardigan now has a sleeve ;-).  I'm really pleased with how it has turned out given that I'm not using a pattern - it fits!  I'm now on the second sleeve and on track to have this finished by the end of the month.  Knitting sleeves is just plain boring so I've been watching some Mad Men episodes and planning dressmaking in my head to alleviate the boredom.

I have been enjoying wearing my me-mades to work this month, but it's also been nice to wear rtw stuff at the weekends, especially since getting all my summer clothes out of the loft.  It's like having been on a mammoth shopping spree without spending any money - a definite win.

This will be last thing I knit for me, probably until the autumn, because once this is finished I will be concentrating on sewing during the summer, and baby knitting - so much quicker than adult-sized knitting!

Well, that's it for now, back to the knitting...
