endless, endless...

i am still working on my husband's christmas present! sleeve number one is thisclose to done, but i needed to wind up a fresh skein so yesterday i foolishly brought my knitting to work but no yarn. then last night i wound 4 balls while watching sherlock, and... did not bring any with me today! so again, i have a work-in-progress but no actual yarn to knit with. this is torture!

i will confess however that of the yarn i wound yesterday, 3 balls were yarn for me (my christmas present for my son!) - i'm going to make myself a sweater vest, which i'm hoping will be done fairly quickly. it's only right that i should get a treat for myself too i think!
