Mr. Greenjeans is almost done

My Mr. Greenjeans cardigan project is part of the Ravelry 2008 Football KAL (Knit-A-Long) and just needs sleeves to be complete. I needed a project to take me through December (when the season ends) but, alas have been able to crank this bad-gal out pretty quickly. I love the idea of KALs- you get great ideas on what to knit next, plus advise and photos of what others are knitting. I saw about 500 examples of this sweater alone on Ravelry, modeled on just about every body type, using all kinds of different yarns. It really is inspiring.
