Progress Update: Big Damn Sweater

We are at:

3.5 skeins of yarn.

Main Cable.  Please ignore the lifelines

1 Main Cable repeat

Entire Thing.

16 inches long

Not shown: the look on my face when I realized that I had screwed up 12 rows earlier, causing the entire cable to be lop-sided.  Nor the 2 pints it took to get me through ripping those stitches out and reknitting them (correctly) with grace.  I'm not allowed to work on this thing at Stitch and Bitch anymore.

I still haven't ordered more yarn.  I'm thinking after my next paycheck?

And I'm starting Baby S-H's blanket today.
(EDIT: no I'm not.  I failed to both grab the correct set of needles and stitch markers.)
