Year of Projects Update - week 28


Well I have knitted away at my Raspberry tart and I am nearly finished.  I just need to do a few more rounds on the cuffs, and I think I should finish today.

I haven't been totally monogamous - I find it so hard to be now.  A year ago I would hate to have more than one project on the go, but now I love the choice.  So I started a mkal with Maria Rosa Knits Away on Ravelry.  This is a sock KAL, since I want to knit a few this year.  I have got off to a good start and see no reason why I won't have finished the first clue by Wednesday next week.  I have included a picture this week as it is just the toe so gives nothing away.

I have also nearly completed a new fox purse, as I sold the last one.

Today I'm hoping to finish all of these projects, complete a skirt (Delphine by Tilly Walnes - I love this fabric) and then to cast on something new that is in my library.  I'm thinking Fragile Heart next and maybe an Abate for the boys!

  1. Raspberry tart is really looking gorgeous and isn't it funny how over a year things can change, me at the moment I'm enjoying the whole monogamonus thing which is pretty unusual as I like you enjoy the choice but I'm sure it will soon pass. Looking forward to seeing all the finishes that fabric really is very pretty.

  2. Beautiful cables! I have a completely opposite experience with WIPs. When I was just starting knitting, I would have 5-7 projects at the same time, but after 5 years of non-stop knitting I prefer to concentrate on maximum 3 projects at the same time. At least now I actually finish them :)

  5. I love Tart! It is coming along so nicely--and your owl fabric? I am in love with it too. I keep seeing folks socks which then niggles at me to finish the pair I started last summer--I hope I can figure out where I left off!
    Have a super week--

  6. I love the oops of color against the navy in your fabric. You did a splendid job on that hexagonal purse. I want to steal your tart WIP.
