It really has been close to a month since I posted, there goes doing better on blogging. Life hasn’t changed much here. I’m still plugging away at work, DH still looking for a job. On the knitting front I’ve finished two pairs of socks I promised to make for someone else – their yarn so it doesn’t count in my stash reduction. I did finish one pair for myself though. I’m half way through the sleeves on my sweater. I passed on some kits to a friend so you would think I’m doing good on my yarn diet but you’d be wrong. First fall down, 1 skein of wollemeise bought from another knitter on ravelry, 1 skein from sock club (oops adding yarn in a club form when trying to decrease the total amount is not helpful). I’m still two skeins down but club kits will still be coming so I better be knitting faster.
So out of these goals
- 2 lace weight projects – I have to finish finishing the one
- Use at least 20 skeins of sock yarn from stash -2 skeins down (I’m counting giving it away as gone)
- Finish the socks on the needles down to one pair (no change)
- Finish the sweater on the needles – front and back done, 9″ into sleeves
- Make at least one sweater – yarn wound
- Knit at least 2 projects with handspun- not started
I have been spinning though – which is a problem as I don’t want to knit I just want to spin sometimes. I’m going to finish the sweater on the needles this month so spinning is only going to be allowed one day per week.
