Though mine was a hat, Alexa, so about 1/30 of what you took on. Knowing you were doing The Dude inspired me to keep going, even when I felt I was in colourwork hell. Finish line, WOOT!

It was only for a 4 year old though so not nearly as ambitious as a adult sweater. It does make me feel like finishing an adult sweater is actually possible for me though, so a big win overall.

What happened? you may ask- let me tell you. Opening ceremony I casted on- right on schedule. The next day I finished one boot so I told myself that I had to slow it down so I would'nt finish before the closing ceremony. So Sunday rolled around and feeling confident I started on the other boot and was just about to cast off during the closing ceremony when I realized I had knit the second boot a small size when the first boot was a medium...uggg I ripped it all out. Take two (the next day of course). I knit the boot up again, wove in my ends and sewed on the buttons to realize I had knit 2 LEFT BOOTS.... Lesson learned- dont leave things to the last moment and haste makes waste. I will finish these stupid boots this week- I swear.
