Knitting Progress.... On Central Park Hoodie...

I got two cables done last night (thanks to insomnia.... sigh... I need AmbienCR-- lol....) I am love, love, loving this sweater!! I hope I am making the right size. I'm making the size for my bust measurement. Well I was reading on the Interweave site about this, and read a couple of comments about 'bust measurement' and 'finished bust measurement'? Well what's the difference? I hope it is the right size, anyway... This will be the first sweater I have ever knitted for myself. :D
Close-up of the cables (blurry....) I was going to finish my LA Shrug first, before I even worked on the Central Park Hoodie at all... But, yesterday I sewed the sleeve on and got to the halfway point (with much sweat and holding my breath lol) and I realized I had sewn it on with the wrong side out!!!! AAAAAAAAAARRRGHHHH!!! So.... I 'un'sewed the whole thing and put it away. That really made me mad. I hope I can sew it on the right way, as good as I did the wrong way.... sheesh... So I worked on the hoodie and a square (which I also had to rip one row out of... yesterday was just not my day to crochet I guess...) :P I am hoping to wear my shrug next weekend, though. So I will definitely finish it soon!

Love the cables Tina! Are you going to make two of those (one front and one back?)...
Oh, I have made the same mistake on sewing sleeves before...now you are going to make sure you are sewing on the right side ;)

Well this is just the back. I haven't looked at how many cables the front has, but it is two sides I will be making for the front. :)
