Despite being heavier wool, larger needles and mostly stocknit, this one seems to be growing so much slower than Hitofude. That's one of the things I love about lace - with charts you have little mini goals (to get to the end of a repeat, or onto the next chart) that help you feel like you're making progress.
This is mostly plain knitting with little bit of feather and fan on the fronts... it just doesn't have the same context.
I want a decent amount of length on this one, so I don't foresee the body being done in the near future, but row by row, I'll get there.

Very pretty. After working on your last lacy sweater, this project would be almost brainless - for you!! You could almost do it in your sleep, couldn't you??? It is going to be a wonderful garment! Looking forward to how his will look when modeled.
Yes, mini goals - well said! I find the same thing with self-patterning yarn or stranded colourwork. You have more patience for cardigans than anyone! Lovely colour!
ohhh very pretty combo of yarn and pattern. You nailed this one. Its going to be gorgeous
Lace does seem to fly off the needles no matter how involved it is.
I love that color! Your are a cardigan master. I just favorited this on ravelry because of you!
That is pretty too, and I'd love to knit it myself if sport weight yarn was a little easier to find here. Instead I'll admire yours :)
