I finished the first front for the sweater, and have cast on the second.
When this odd-shaped piece is blocked, it will be a half-hexagon. One of the things I really liked about this sweater is all the non-standard pieces. The back looks like a tall truncated triangle with a split at the bottom to insert the godet (a simple triangle), the sleeves are elongated hexagons, and the fronts are half-hexagons.
My geometry teacher would have been so proud.
Here's a close-up of the cabley action.
Assembling this beast is going to be a challenge. What fun!
Speaking of beasts, I'm very glad I went out a little early to feed the critters this afternoon. Fifteen minutes after I came in, I looked out the window at a complete white-out. It had only been spitting snow when I fed the sheep...

Here too, I looked up and was Woah!!! where did *that* come from?!? Then looked around to see if the cat was outside.... he wasn't.
I love geometry, especially when I am making my own patterns. It's so logical!
It's going to look so cool when finished!
I love geometry! This is a very cool sweater - construction-wise. I can't wait to see all the pieces before you get the puzzle put together.
Beautiful work! We had the whiteout in Burlington also. Glad it happened before I had to leave work for home. Have a great weekend!
Beautiful knitting! I can't wait to see it completed.
I was better at Algebra, which isn't saying much. I'm so impressed with your project monogamy. My coffee table is littered with projects, books, yarns, spindles and fiber as I flit from one to the other.
