Love your Library - Week 1

So this week I have organised!!
I put the next few projects into bags, along with pattern and needles if possible.

I also made a little progress on project WO.  I have now cut the fabric for the dress and I received the yarn from Mel (Mellifera yarn on Etsy) to make the bag.  I had asked her to dye a matching aran to the silky sock she did for me in November.  Also one of my Christmas presents was a knicker kit from Sew Over It!!  So I am all set - hopefully next week I should have started some of these projects!

Year of Projects Update - week 27

Despite loving Christmas, I love the new year - a new start and all that!

To that end I have joined a group of bloggers to fight the stash (of patterns mainly but I hope to fight the stash of yarn as well).  It marries up with the year of projects and my own project wo.  If you would like to join us, it is hosted by snapdragon crafts.

I haven't got lots of projects to show this week, in fact, the only one I've worked on is Raspberry tart - I'm getting there!

 Oh and I sewed up my booties!

I am going to be fairly monogamous now to finish this, but to get the year off to a productive start I have bagged up my next few projects (from 'the list', from the Ravelry library and the project wo) ready to get going on.

The next two will be the new year sock mystery KAL and then the bag for the wedding.

So that is it for this week - if you like the idea then join us at YOP.

Love Your Library Challenge - 2015

I have been a little lacking in my weekday posts of late.  But I just saw in one of the Ravelry groups, the above challenge and thought it was a good idea!!

My library just gets bigger, never smaller!
This year, one pattern I will definitely be tackling is Fragile Heart as it is for my sister in law's wedding.

Second up is Abate that I want to knit for my two boys.  I have just got them to choose the colours they want and have bought the yarn from Loveknitting (came in two days over New year - very impressive!)
I would also like to knit a few socks this year, but have yet to settle on patterns.  I have several in my library and Rachel Coopeys, Knitted Sock Society book so between the two I should be fine!  I may organise a list in a subsequent post.

In addition to all of these I want to knit a few sweaters from my library.  I hope this is the encouragement I need to get that sorted.  No pictures this week as I have to start on this plan!   I'm just finishing Raspberry tart - I have finished the body and just need to do the sleeves - then I'm off!
