I'm a teacher living in Muskoka, Ontario. I've been knitting since I was a teenager, and the more I teach, the more I realize I'm not only ADD but insane. I need to knit constantly. I'd knit when I'm driving, too, but I fear that the OPP may frown upon that.

Yargh, finishing!
Why does it always seem that finishing a sweater takes almost as long as knitting the dratted thing? Blocking and seaming, seaming and blocking. Enough already!!!
But I am quite proud of these shoulder seams - and even though they are far, far, far from perfect, if you had seen my previous seams you'd understand. I was never really taught how to do them before (that means you, ma!). But I figured out what the Internet is really for - knitting tips! Between knitty and some German site that fortunately had pictures, I found out how to do them properly! So now all I need is practise.
I had wanted to have this done to wear to school tomorrow, but that ain't happening. Hopefully Tuesday, and of course pics of the finished product!
