Knitting Update

So I have sewn up the sides of the sleeves, up to the bicep line.  And I managed to sew up the sides of the sweater by gluing the scrap yarn together lol.  But I really had no other choice.  Since it wasn't a yarn that we could purchase, I had to do something.  Right now, all that really has to be done is to sew the shoulders to the sweater, but she wants to be there.  And because I don't drive and she can't drive right now, we haven't been able to get together.  Which isn't good because we are running very close to our deadline.

Our deadline is March 14th.  That's 8 days away.  Not only have we not finished the sweater.  But the hat/scarf, is FAR from being completed.  I finished the scarf part of it, but I can't proceed any further.  I need more yarn, and I have to figure out how to design the hat piece and the connecting piece.  There is no telling how long that will take.  It's kind of frustrating me and scaring me at the same time.

Then she emailed me with a third garment that she wanted done.  The third one will be extremely easy, but very time consuming! And I don't have the yarn for that yet either.  So I have 3 garments to finish in 8 days.  And there are 12 items in her line that she designed.  I'm really hoping she has almost finished the other items.

We haven't discussed what she is paying me.  We started to in the very beginning but that was only for the sweater, and the amount she came to me with wasn't and isn't sufficient.  We will figure it out and I'm not too concerned about it.

She was supposed to get the materials and whatnot to me Friday, and something happened.  Saturday then turned into Sunday, and I haven't heard from her today. I guess because there is nothing I can do, I'll just wait and be hopeful.
