Quick project update

(please ignore the mess that is my desk in the background!)

Here's where the pullover stands after finishing the 3rd ball of yarn. I'm surprised at how far 3 balls went, actually! I may end up having enough to make full-length or maybe 3/4 length sleeves after all!

I should have realized that my funny neck wouldn't stand up like I imagined in such a soft yarn, it mostly just lays there. I'm actually OK with how it looks even though it's not what I intended, and I'm liking the style and fit of this pullover so far. I may have made the sleeves too wide and may end up doing some sort of a gathered-sleeve to take up some of the bulk, but I'm trying not to worry about it. For now it's just knit-knit-knit around and around until I have the desired length -- very soothing!

And because this picture kills me, here's Arnold passed out with his back paws sticking out:
