Happy New Year / My Knitting Resolution

My singular goal for my knitting is simply to finish this dang Jolly Rancher sweater-- and sooner rather than later!  I finished one sleeve over the weekend and did about 30% of the second one so I suppose I'm on track.  In the meantime, I have come to the conclusion that I loath knitting long sleeves and will avoid doing so in the future.  Knitting all these short rows on long circular needles is strangely tedious in ways that knitting the torso is not.  Not to mention, I get overheated sometimes and short-sleeves jobbies are just more comfortable for me.  So, short sleeves it is... as soon as I finish this stupid thing.  Hopefully that will be within the week and I can get on with my life.

For future projects I am considering another "Global Warming" sweater or maybe I'll actually get around to the Buttony.  If I do it, it would be heavily modified with short sleeves and all.
