after all of my little projects with handspun and remnants, i decided it is time to work on a bigger project again. i must be a glutton for punishment i just cast-on a traveling woman shawlette. i am using a hand-dyed tussah silk yarn (drachenwolle) from my stash. it kinda squeaks

This week I am finishing up a pair of yymn socks.
Next week I am going on a selfish vacation and knitting only for myself (socks).
Then when I come back I have 4 pairs of socks for one trade and 1 pair for another to start. _________________ Becky's Paper Creations hc

Just knitting ...
~I've got a soaker to finish (hate picking up stitches)
~I still haven't finished Tallin's sweater, but think I need to frog and start again as it's huge.
~I'm working on a Wrapped About for me, if I don't lose the will to live first. This is my Selah bella project.
~I've got the final decreases on the second of a pair of mittens for me
~And I need to guide Nayan through a Woolly Wormhead jester hat that I cast on for him today, to go with the scarf that he's started. I think the hat will be better for him for now. _________________ Shadow

Finishing a pair of shorties for a swap today or tomorrow.
A few more trainers for the twins.
Want to make some dresses and shirts for the girls.
The girls need summer pajamas and I hate everything in the store so I guess I'm making some.
Hopefully finish a shawl for myself.
Going to the TN. Fiber Festive and going to learn to knit socks so maybe some socks.
Finish the curtains for the twins room. I have to do this as soon as I finish the shorties. I can't finish planting my bulbs in the front flower bed until the curtains are finish because the twins can see me when they are supposed to be napping.  _________________ Amanda, wife of 1, mom of 5

I'm currently knitting a pair of skirted capris, I've got the Lucia tester knit to do and a pair of SMSS bloomers. I've just finished the Arabella pinafore and have yarn coming to do another one.
Also on my list, but not likely to get done are a Springtime in Hollis (in WSK Pinkbow), a skirty for my niece and a FASC shawl from MM Barn Owl. I've also got some Woodland in Spring and Dragon's Lair sock yarn coming. I WILL learn to knit socks. _________________ Amanda, Mom to Tyler (12/05), Wife to DH Marc (7/05)

I have a ton to do and am feeling sick pretty much 24/7
-Finish up a newborn pair of longies
-2 nightgowns each for my girls
-tons of diapers and trainers to sew
Among all of this, DH just bought another cabinet for the sewing station he made for me and a bunch of wood to build cubby holes into my closet, so I am going to have to vacate my crafting room for a bit while he is working on it! _________________ Jessica~WAHM to Julianne 5-19-07, Jocelyn 8-10-08 & our new sweet baby Jacqueline 12-30-10

I am working on a bunch of baby soap, scented with bergamot/lavender, and some that are unscented as well. I'm still in the testing/experiment stage, so I guess I will see how it goes  _________________ http://www.facebook.com/bluebirdbathcompany |
