No interesting stories, but here's what I've been working on....
Rogue is halfway through the hood.
It's harder and harder to make myself knit it, though, so I have to move back and forth between different projects. If I finish the hood this weekend, then do one sleeve each week, I'll still make my goal.
I almost finished a soaker using beautiful, handspun wool. Still needs a drawstring...and a heart.
There's enough yarn left that I might be making socks to match.
I will, however, need the needles that are here:
This is a first sock of 8 (HA!) that I want to make for the CIC sock challenge.
This sock is the project that I took with me today for DS#2's basketball game.
ME: "Wait, I have to get my knitting and then we can go."
HIM: "But mom, you're supposed to be watching ME!"
ME: "That's why I'm taking something easy to do so that I can watch you at the same time."
That was my theory, and it was true that I didn't pay much attention. So much so, that I started the toe decreases without moving some stitches around, and now the toe is all wonky. Gotta be frogged and done over. (All was not lost--DS's team won the game.)
Umm......I might've added another project to my Jan. to-do list. Not starting it, though, just finishing it.
I'm helping put together a Warm Up America afghan. The squares are all done, I'm just adding the black border and then sewing together. This, too, must be done by the end of January.
Am I feeling the pressure? Just a bit.
