It won't knit itself...

Recently, while reading a blog, I was reminded of the old adage, "Slow progress is better than no progress."

Nine months ago I started my first sweater. At the end of the summer, the back was finished. A few days ago, an inch completed on the front binding, it dawned on me, carrying it around in a knitting bag does not translate to completion. "It's not going to knit itself."

Six rows is a healthy "inch." The goal is set to knit six rows a day. In two weeks the front will be completed to the neck, then onto the a sleeves. With any luck and a bit of knitting this sweater might be finished by Valentine's Day, six rows at a time.
