What a tangled web!

Watson is such a mess of yarn ends, stitch holders, cables as stitch holders, and even a bit of purple ribbon as stitch holder that I don't dare take a picture of it. Evidence that this state existed may find some may to come back and destroy something once I have the front finished, the shoulders sewn, and the ends neatly tucked away. This thing is a monster right now. I am absolutely stopping to weave in ends before I finish the first sleeve and start the second. I should have done long ago, though I don't know that it would really make a difference in the mess I have at this point. I keep reminding myself how close I am to being done.

In better news, the pattern is now live! It includes some fascinating history on knitting and the military, as well as adorable artwork by the incomparable [livejournal.com profile] sadynax. You can download it from the Ravelry pattern page or from Baker Street Supper Club. Have fun!
