I put markers to mark my daily progress and they really helped to keep me moving.
In one week's time, I've done 7 inches and am now ready for the bodice (i.e. the hard part).

Pulling out the rest of my yarns, I found this hot mess.

I still haven't decided on the color combinations.
To recap, I needed 2 shades of 3 colors for a total of 6, including the grey. I originally have 6 colors, but 3 shades of teal, 2 of yellow, and grey all by itself.
This is my first swatch.

Hmm...
Then, I bought 2 shades of pink and tried this out.

Double hmmm...
Then I put it all away and forged ahead on the ribbing.
Figured I'd deal with it later.
Now, it's later and time to decide.
Or knit another swatch.
Or two.
