I do enjoy knitting stockinette in the round. It is just so mindless and endless, you just keep knitting, and watching things grow. It is great for reading, and I do love reading. It is also great for watching TV that you have to actually watch. So far I am liking the pattern, and the yarn is wonderful to work with. I did extend the yoke before setting aside the sleeve stitches and casting on the underarm stitches past where the pattern instructions stated for my size, knowing that I need a deeper yoke to accommodate my broader shoulders.
This photo was taken after I had finished up skein two of the four skeins that I have. I did some quick math on yarn usage, and I should be fine.
Pattern: Adult Acorn Sweater by Kalley Reedy
