BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Knitting What are we all knitting now

I have decided to reactivate this post in the hopes it will spur me on to finish some items. I am currently working on:

1. One pair of Earl Grey socks, pattern by Stephanie Pearl-Mcphee
2. One pair of basic socks, pattern by Stephanie Pearl-Mcphee
3. One scarf using a lace pattern from Barbara Walker
4. One woman's sweater (pattern unknown-which may be why it will be hard to finish.
5. One man's sweater exlarge (which is why it is taking so long)
6. One baby hat using left over Fixation yarn pattern came with purchase.
7. One Alice Staremore Fair Isle vest (might be too small, but I'm working on the edging and live in hope that blocking will make it all work out!)

1. a 6 mo. size sweater set in white
2. a knitted bag, pattern from the antiquepattern site (1919). The instructions are slightly odd, but understandable.
3. a dishcloth for when all else is too much.

I'm still lusting over a knitted shawl pattern and a sweater pattern but need to save up for special yarn for those, not to mention new circular needles. *drool*

*hugs*

I checked out the antique pattern site -- very nice patterns there. Enjoy and thanks for dropping in

A gansey of handspun Jacklandic wool for my DH.

Good to see a knitting thread. I love knitting.

I am knitting a scarf this week. Later planning to knit a table cloth.

I just can't knit one thing at a time (sort of goes along with not being able to knit with one YARN at a time). I think I must have knitting attention deficit disorder). ANYWAYS, at the moment I am knitting a Moroccan-inspired cardigan and another new design for fall based on autumn woods. Meanwhile, I'm craving to work on some stash yarn I brought back from Stitches West. Think heaps of glossy golds and teak hues.

Glad to see, Marge, that you seem to have the same problem!

Uh oh, this weekend I cleaned out and consolidated two closets that have gotten out of control and I found a few more UFO's (unfinished objects) one is a blanket - hard to lose, but I did and one felted glove.

The big plan is to move my yarn to one place that is accessible, but won't get attacked by moths or light. Right now it is in clear plastic bins in the attic, hat boxes through out the house, knitting bags - to grab and go when I head out the door, in a basket by the couch, in another basket next to that basket...

I'm going to be starting a pair of socks later this week.
I always like to have some socks going as it's a quick "grab and go" project.
