Current Projects

I am horribly guilty of starting new projects before I finish the current ones in progress. I have a lot of big plans for future projects, so these are the things I need to finish before I get there.

1. Feel Pretty Scarf - This one is a commission project I'm working on, in a lovely purple yarn that is great to work with. I'm about 1/8th of the way through it, so this one will probably be finished first.

2. Alpaca spinning project - this one will be an ongoing project and one that won't be finished before I get started on my planned stuff, but it's also an awesome project! I'm hand carding and spinning 6 fleeces, hopefully by the end of summer but we'll see how that goes.

3. Socks - This one is the Skew pattern, and I'm doing these 2 at a time, so they should also be fairly fast. I think I'm about halfway through the foot, and I haven't started the heels yet.

4. Catoctin Shawl - I seriously only have the border to do on this one. It's a knitted on border (meaning one row of border is one stitch off the length of the border, if that makes any sense at all) so it's taking forever... over 700 stitches give or take and it's slow going. I just need to suck it up and finish it already.

5. A BIG shawl- I may have bit off a bit more than I can chew currently with this one. It's a Shetland shawl, so it's constructed center out, and I currently only have a small portion of the center done. This one might end up in WIP land for a while while I work on everything else and be picked up later...

I think that's everything pressing right now. So, not a LOT of projects, but it's involved. Hooray for motivation to finish and get going on my new plans!
