Must. Stop. Casting. On.
Yikes! Since last week I've cast on a sweater for Babygirl and my Irish Sweater. What have I finished...nothing! I will not start any more new projects until I finish something!
Here goes...on my needles:
1. Everyday Baby Cardi for Babygirl. Yarn is Lion Brand LB Collection Cotton Bamboo in Persimmon. I purchased the yarn on a field trip to Lion Brand in Manhattan with some members of my crochet guild. It was back in the summer or fall of 2010, because I was pregnant with Babygirl. Started Thursday and I've already finished the back and half the left front. Loving how fast this is going. Think I'll work on some more sweaters for Babygirl when I finish some projects.
2. My Irish Sweater: Halletts Ledge with my Irish yarn. I think I know what the yarn is, just waiting for confirmation from the shop where my mom purchased it. Technically I've only swatched this. I need to get a set of circs in the correct size...all mine are currently busy with other projects :(
3. Solar Flare us still on the needles. No progress there.
4. All Shades of Truth wrap - same no progress there.
5. Lace Cardigan - Not much progress there since Wednesday. I have to sit down and write out the next
part of the pattern tonight. (I do this for increasing/decreasing parts to help me see it better.)
I'm looking forward to seeing what others have been up to this week! Happy Knitting!
Thats alot of WIPS on the go. I look forward to seeing these as FO's
ReplyDeleteMe too :)
DeleteCan't wait to see the baby cardigan finished! Thanks for the tip about the socks, I borrowed a book about knitting socks toe so I might try that.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the sock knitting. It took me a while to get into a groove with it...but it's so worth it!
DeleteThat persimmon yarn is very pretty :) See the positive in having a lot of WIPS is that you do have freedom to "change it up" when you need a new color to look at haha.
ReplyDeleteThen I should be set for a while!!
DeleteJust love the colour of babygirls sweater and great choice in sweater for your Irish yarn. I'm sure you'll get something off the needles soon.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping so! I won't start the Irish sweater until I finish Babygirl's sweater. That gives me the incentive to keep going!
DeleteAhhhhhhhhhhhhh..............I feel so much better now. Glad to see someone else had WIP's out the whazoo! Love the sweater color too.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. I felt a lot better this morning after reading other yop1213 posts :)
DeleteAh yes, I feeling I can relate well too. I had to force myself not to cast on something new this week. I'm sure you will finish something soon.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping so!
DeleteAh me too - I have castonitis and notfinishanythingitis too :p Love the colour of the sweater :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week x
Thanks! Love the term :notfinishanythingitis"!
DeleteLove the color..that musta been a great trip to the lions store...
ReplyDeleteThanks! It was a lot of fun! A few months ago I went to visit the LB factory store. It was amazing! The had some of the old displays from the NYC storefront and lots of yarn :)
DeleteLovely melon colour for the cardi - and a charming little pattern. Cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I wanted something different when I picked out the color.
Deletewe are so much alike...I have several projects going at once too...but at least we are never bored..Right????
ReplyDeleteGot that right! I have so many projects on the needles it's not even funny. One of my goals this year is to tackle UFOs and either work on them or frog them!
DeleteThe coral colour of that yarn is right up my street - love it!
ReplyDeleteHow inconsiderate of all your circs to be otherwise occupied! Gorgeous cardi :)
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to seeing more of the baby cardigan! I have interchangable needles so I can "borrow" them from one project to another, although it's not always practical :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE the color of baby girl sweater....looking forward to seeing it progress. Don't be too hard on yourself with multiple projects. You have plenty of company...we all do that, lol.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun yarn and I love the color. I love visiting the LB Yarn Studio. Sometimes I have a burst of started projects, but eventually, everything settles down.
ReplyDeleteBaby cardigans are great because they're so quick to knit, you'll have it done in no time. And I love the colour, great for a small girl.
ReplyDeleteLOL at Must.Stop.Casting.On! That's why my YoP list is now nearly all WIP.... Love the color and the pattern of the baby girl sweater! Happy Knitting this week :)
ReplyDeleteI have been there with the too many wips--after a time I feel a bit frantic and discombobulated and end up not being able to make progress on any of them! I sure love your baby cardi--baby girl is a lucky wee one.
