Still chugging along on the sleeves of my sweater. I’m doing full-length sleeves instead of the pattern’s 3/4. During the week I usually only get 2-3 rounds done each night, so I’m hoping to have the sweater done by the end of the month.

Pattern: Sunanami pullover

Yarn: KnitPicks Capretta Superwash in eclipse heather

Now that my sweater is finished and I’ve worn it several times, it’s not a yarn I’d use again. It is warm, but it pills easily. The pills are very light compared to the yarn color, so they really stand out. Definitely glad I decided to wait before buying this yarn to make a sweater for my partner - I’ll find something else for them.
