Some progress! But it's dark yarn and the fabric is curling something fierce right now, so no pics yet.

I finally got the hang of m1l and m1r, so the yoke of this already looks better than my Flax. (I love my Flax and have worn it around the house and to the game shop, but it's still a First Sweater.) Going from cotton/wool blend to pure wool has been interesting. I like it, but it's pretty scratchy.

The yarn for Stillwater arrived last night. Solstice Heather is a really pretty colorway, overall about the color of new denim, but you can see the purple and lighter blues when you get closer. I really hope the bestie likes it as much as I do. I also appreciate the center-pull Knit Picks sends. No winding!

I purchased the pattern this morning and will read it over tonight while I free up the needles for the sweater. I was only half-assedly working on a cowl anyway. I would much rather be working on the sweater.

The story of Vox Machina is coming to a close, and I have at least 4 episodes to watch. In addition to rediscovering the Historical Farm series from the BBC. I have so much to watch while knitting!
