layering shrug - why sideways construction confounds me

so i thought i was almost done with this sucker. after 7.5 repeats of the back pattern, it looked like it would fit and be okay for me to start the other sleeve. upon questioning other ravelers, however, i was assured that the pattern calls for it to fall loosely and that i needed to go the whole nine yards and knit 9.5 repeats. sigh. not that the pattern is hard - in fact, i have it burned in my brain - but sighing because i'm so ADD with knitting and i already have other projects lined up but i'm a one-project-at-a-time kinda gal and i just want to be DONE with his one so i can move on to the next, a sweet little number that looks like this:

i know, whinge, whinge. bitch, bitch. at least it's summer break and i have all this time to knit at all, right? you're right, gentle reader. thanks for the sanity slap.

in other news - i finally got all the kinks in the blog/rav connection fixed. aside from some minor stylistic adjustments, i think i'm satisfied with what i've wrought and now can focus on posting instead of designing.

i think. -_-

but maybe a progress bar for my current project...or a quote of the week...or a book list...
