pop perserverance

Two pop sleeves, nice and long now.

As for the front, I'm just going to keep passing the open windows.

I think "pop" needs a new name at this point. Something more like "The Sweater that Never Ends." :)

Or.."As The Sweater Turns..."

How about calling it "Pop Goes The Vein In Alison's Neck"? If I was doing what you've been doing with that sweater over the last few months... what am I saying? It woulda been out the window the first time. You must be a direct descendant of Job. or wait, no, who is the guy in Greek mythology who pushes the rock up the hill over and over for all of eternity? This sweater is your rock.

The colors you've chosen are so terrific that I think you are right to persevere with this sweater.

Oh dear. Yes, keep passing Pop's open windows! We will all throw a virtual party when you finish her. :)

Alison,

I also had my share of a *neverending* sweater. But it's finally done! And it's blue! :)
Good luck.

that is my favorite john irving quote of all time. i used to use it as my correspondence sign off. :)

Thank you Carolyn for recognizing the quote. It's been a long time since I've heard it, but last time I posted about pop, I mentioned possibly throwing her out the window and people said 'don't throw it out the window!' and I immediately thought of that line. I think it'll have to be the new tag line for my pop archives!

You certainly are tenacious! If you don't mind I have a "never ending" eros sweater to send your way.
