Sleeve woes

It takes a LONG time to knit sleeves on size 3 needles!  So far, this sweater on such small needles didn't seem much slower than anything else I've made, but now I am starting to feel the burn.  Here's what I have so far:

I wasn't going to bring these sleeves with me on my three day trip to Tokyo because my back still hurts and I have successfully gotten all clothes and necessities into one small backpack (sock knitting included).  But just tonight I realized that I am already going to be at The Pink Cow on Tokyo SnB night.  How could I miss it?!  Do I cram my sleeves-in-progress into the bag too, or do I just show up with my sock?  What a dilemma!

Three days...a small backpack? Whoa!

Wow, the sleeves look great! And I'm complaining about my clapotis on size 3's! Have a great Tokyo trip.

have great trip. those sleeves are lookin' good!

Dang, those sleeves look AWESOME. Take em with ya!

Hey Molly! Thanks for stopping by the Pink Cow, it was great to meet you and I hope you come back again (w/o your knit-dissing peers!). Okinawa looks super gorgeous, I could use a nice sandy beach right now...

I'm glad to know I am not the only one feeling like it is taking forever to knit up the sleeves. Everytime I bring them out to knit it seems like they are the same length as the week before.
