Provisional Birthday Sweater

I'm knitting my boyfriend a sweater for his birthday. I don't want to get married, so hopefully that will negate the ol' Boyfriend Sweater Curse. Of course, his birthday is on Sunday, and the sweater is - truthfully - yet to be started. So I mailed him this mini-sweater today, to help him keep the faith. Cute, no? It looks a tad zombie-ish somehow.
