i can't believe it

so today while measuring my sweet friend's pink skirt, i discovered it was at the 13.5 inches (34.3 cm) in length it is supposed to be before i begin the finishing touches. while eyeing it on the needles i thought it not quite long enough to be considered a skirt. but i had my sweet friend try it on and lo and behold! it is long enough. which means i am very close to finishing the pink skirt. the goal was to finish it by the big guy's h.s. graduation, which is this coming saturday. so if i quit blogging and start knitting, i may just get it finished in time. huzzah!
