Time formula
So J asked whether I know how much time I've spent on Rogue (and I added the deadline of december 21st). Here is my SWAG:
October 1 to December 21 = 30+31+21 = 82 days. I worked on Rogue every other day (with Owl sock & CTH burgundy scarf), then vacation (to ND), then T-day long weekend (shared with WC), then vacation (to Cali). So I would guess that evens out to 1/2 *82 days = 41 days. Each day knitting time is between 2-3hrs = avg 1.5hrs. 41 days * 1.5hrs = 61.5 hrs
With the margin of error of about 20% (80/20 rule), that leads me to 49.2 hrs - 73.8 hours.
Oh, progress pic ... here it is...the body + hood and the back of the hood.
All in all, I am happy with the cables, but not really thrilled with the hood decrease. I just notice the hooded fleece jacket my mom gave me has the same 'hood thing' going. hrmph.
Oh, I am on step 21. Next up: grafting of the hood cables and the back of the hood into the cable border.
P.S. Rogue is laying on the comforter that I hide under when I knit, and you can also see the puppies who are sleeping on my feet.

Yea, that is a pretty standard hood decrease. The baby cardi hood I made had a similar thing. Hoods are weird. My sweatshirt hood I have today has the same seam. It will be ok. :)
Rogue looks fantastic! :D
