I can taste it...

Whew--I finished those freakin' sleeves. I don't know what my problem was--I had like 1.5 sets of repeats of the 32-row pattern when I whined in this post. Two days later, the sleeves are finished, and the cardigan is seamed up, and kinda fits, even before blocking. Now all I have to do is block it and knit the few rows of seed stitch borders on the neck and fronts. I'm almost done, and I already really, really like it--even those crazy sleeves! I can taste the victory! You see, having this done means I can cast on a new project and buy some more yarn for my 10-yarn stash!
