WIP Wipe Out/Stashalong








Tuesdays will henceforth be my WIP Wipe Out/Stashalong(the continuing journey) updates. I have quite a few started pieces that I would like to get finished so that I can start something else with no guilt.


7 WIPs

Here's what needs to get done(in no particular order):
1. lacy socks(started on the whirlwind NY funeral trip)
2. top down raglan(March Project Spectrum piece)
3. hooded T shirt(started last year and very close to being finished)
4. Rogue Revisited(one sleeve done)
5. Beginner's Triangle(the first KAL I joined and it's still not done)
6. Little Diva's scarf(my longest WIP and now I'm not sure I even want to finish it at all)
7. Seaming Little Rage's sweater.

Here's what's itching to get onto some needles:
1. Mim's shawls(Adamas, Mountain Peaks, Seraphim, and her as yet unpublished one in Summer's Interweave)--I have stash yarn for all.
2. My Albertville Olympic Sweater(which I have wanted to start since I started my blog)--again yarn is in my stash for this
3. Socks--I think I'm past my sock burn out from Christmas 2004--also have stash yarn for this, but will buy some new stuff as well.
4. Some more lace from A Gathering of Lace.

I'm only working on WIPs this month as most of my month will be cross stitch focused(see tomorrow's post). Although I'm hosting the continuing adventures of Stashalong, I'm not rejoining for a few weeks--I need to shop people!

What is that beautiful lacy blue thing? Is that the Beginner's Triangle? That would tempt me the most.

maybe if you start small (seaming up Little Rage's sweater) it'll give you momentum to finish the rest. Will we see you on Fri at TC?

suggestion? are you open to it, if not, just delete...
seam the bleepin sweater, you'll end boundless guilt by doing so. Frog 5 and 6 and return the yarn to stash, and then work on what you want to, not what you feel you 'must' because you started it once upon a time. I can't tell you how freeing it is to just let go of projects you no longer want to make.
oh, and on the update, did Stephanie make a deal with you to leave her off? jk

Marji,
I may frog #6 and make a hat and mittens instead--I just really dislike knitting scarves I thought that one would be different because it has colorwork, but it's not. #5 I have to finish--it's just something I need to do ;)

Oh, and Stephanie wasn't in the final update because she fell off the wagon during week 13 I believe :)

First of all, #7 needs to be done first! Get rid of #6 and #5. Just because you signed up for it doesn't mean you have to do it. Let it go!!

Stashalong--Sign ups end Jan.1

Image
Sign ups have ended. EDIT: Sign ups end January 1 at 5pm Mountain time. Anyone interested in using some of your stash in order to make room for some new spring stuff? Join me in a very informal knitalong. Here are the rules: (1) Must start and try to finish something from your stash yarn(I say "try" to finish because if you pick something huge like an afghan or sweater finishing in three months may not be realistic). (2) You have 3 months and during that time you cannot add to your stash in any way(things ordered before January 1 but not yet delivered do not count--hence the early warning--get it out of your systems, ladies). Of course realistically there is no way to police this, so the honor system is in place. (3) I am beginning on January 1, 2006 and ending March 31, 2006(if there is interest, I'd be glad to start another one after that). (4) Keep me posted on your progress and I will post it once a week--probably Mondays or Tuesdays. I've never attempted to s...

Memory Lane

 Came back…looking through old posts.  There are many times when I really miss blogging. Life has been super busy.  Work, family…pretty stressful. I still have delusions of grandeur that I will find time to get back to the things I love to do unfortunately for the last few years it has been a lot of HAVE to do versus WANT to do.
