A lack of blogging about knitting does not equal a lack of knitting in this case. I have been knitting away on my two projects for me. I am working on sleeve #2 of my Cozy V Neck Pullover with the goal of finishing this weekend so I can wash, block and wear the sweater to New Hampshire over President's Day Weekend!
I love my sweater so far, but I am not totally in love with how tight the bind of is on the body. I have not bound off sleeve #1, leaving it on scrap yarn as I search for a stretchier bind off. Do you have a stretchy bind off that you like? Please send it my way, thanks!

What did you use for a bind-off? I like the one I used, but of course it may come out differently for you: http://slipslipknit.com/?page_id=92
I did a traditional bind off where you work 2 stitches and pass one over and off the needle.
This one seems a little confusing, but I will try it on the sleeves and if it is much better I might undo the bind off on the body (yikes!) and redo it.
It may make more sense when you're actually doing it. Another option is the sewn bind off: http://www.knittingdaily.com/blogs/howto/archive/2008/05/15/sewn-bind-off.aspx
