Nothing like a sweater in the summertime

It's been quite a while since I knitted a sweater (not counting the front and back of the sweater I knitted last winter before I decided I didn't like the yarn) so I started a top-down raglan about a week and a half ago. I knew that it would knit up faster than a normal sweater since there is barely any purling, but I had no idea how fast. This is how far I got in 9 days. At this point I only have to finish the second sleeve, block and weave in the ends. I like to imagine myself wearing this sweater on a snowy Sunday while drinking hot cocoa and sitting in front of the fireplace of a New England cabin. Gotta work on that.

Gave up on the llama yarn one then? What is the yarn for this one? It looks like a comfy sweater. :)
