Ravelympic progress

I'm participating in the cable steeplechase in the Ravelympics. I managed to cast on my Rogue on Saturday morning and ever since I've been snatching knitting time wherever possible.

Here is a side view:



Last night I got to this point:



I've almost finished the left side of the neck and I'm about to rejoin for the right side.

This jumper is knitting up really quickly. Maybe it only feels that way to me because it's been a long time since I've knitted a larger project on large needles and a chunky yarn. For this project I'm using 4 mm needles and Bendigo Woollen Mills Rustic 12 ply.

We are experiencing a really cold spell of weather at the moment so with any luck I'll get the jumper done in time to ward of the chill.
