Starting the second sleeve
The first Union Square Market Pullover sleeve is finished! I just have to block it. I hope the lenght is right, it looks like it but my experience with knitting sweaters is very limited.

I started the second sleave which I hope to finish some time this week. And then onto the putting it together... I discussed this with my mother yesterday and she suggested using the sewing machine to sew the sleeves to the body. I might try that. Any reason not to do it this way?
Guuzjo asked in the comments yesterday if I'm reading the new Harry Potter book. I'm afraid I still have to read the third, fourth and fifth book first! How do you like the Half-Blood Prince, Guuzjo? Finished it yet?
And about the suggestion to build in an RSS feed: I will have to look into that, thanks for the idea!

Guuzjo can just use the link from "syndicate this site". Both RSS and RDF feeds are in XML, with RDF the one that abides the technical rules for the use of XML a bit better. But any half decent newsreader can read both RSS and RDF feeds.
I am, on the other hand, waiting for a pocketpc version of your blog ;-)

Your pullover looks good. I especially like the light blue colors you're using.

How happy I was to find your blog today! I remember your marvelous socks from the Socknitters list ages ago! Glad to see you are still knitting away!

personally i would set the sleeve in by hand because you have more control over what you are doing that way. also after spending all that time knitting with such fine yarn it might be a little safer to go the hand sewing option.
but your mum looks like an exceptional knitter - so her advice is probably sound.
