Sweater From Hell. Let's Go Cotton Fleece!

So now I'm back to knitting the Cotton Fleece sweater. The finished fabric feels wonderfully cool and springy but I hate, hate, HATE working with this yarn! I'm sure I hate working with all cotton yarn which is a shame because I love cotton sweaters. =_= I'm going to have to stop being a sissy and make progress on this thing. I have,as the picture shows, but I would be working twice as fast if I were knitting with wool.

:P

I'm actually daring to make an extra-small with this sweater because even though I never buy extra-small clothes in stores all my hand-knit sweaters have been hanging off me. I've been careful about gauge, too! I'm guessing that a Small for a knitting pattern is for tall skinny people and not medium-framed little people.
