Binge-watching and binge-knitting

janestarzProgress! It's really going fast when you....don't do much else in your weekend. Eisirt got me hooked on a new series on Netflix, called Sons of Anarchy. It's very well-written, and the characters are rounded out and interesting. I am actually looking forward to the next episode every time, and there's some twists and turns that are amazing. ("You fed crystal to a killer dog, man? Are you retarded?")
It's wonderful to spend a weekend doing nothing much. There was a single load of laundry and the house chores were done because we had visitors during the week. Plenty of time to chill with my dear Eisirt! And with lots and lots of stockinette.
Because I have more stitches on the needles now, I had to recalculate the placement of the decreases. Now that I see the picture, they're not really under the nipple, but it's fine. I did a lot of knitting this weekend and I need to do one final decrease to get to the desired waist circumference. That's still eight rows away though. Maybe this time when I'm done with the decreases I'll actually have gotten to the bra band (tall Jane is tall).
It is *very* comfortable though! I'm almost sad summer will probably be over by the time this is done. I am relieved to see the fit is so much better now, that I don't have to frog again. We fixed it!
So, one more decrease, then a large portion of stockinette, then increases again. But all in all: humongous swathes of stockinette. I will fondly remember them when I cable my way down my planned autumn knitting.
