Progress on Mariah

I've been working on the Mariah sweater from Knitty, and have it almost halfway done. I have another sleeve to do, then I can attach all the parts, and I think the rest of it is knit at the same time. I like the cabled sleeves a lot, and this is the most complicated sweater I've knit so far. The pattern isn't really all that difficult, though. The only part I don't like is the stockinette stitch. It's too tedious, but it does go a lot quicker, so that's good. I also like this yarn a lot better than other stuff I've used. It's Patons merino wool and the color is peacock. It's has more green in it than the picture shows. All I need to do now is decide what I want to do for the collar, since I don't want a hood.
