A Year of Projects Update - week 51

I can't believe how quickly this year has gone!  I'm nearly there with next year's list, but I need to tweak here and there!  Anyway, more importantly right now is this week's progress.
Firstly, I blocked the shawl.  Yes, I could have blocked it more aggressively, but I like it how it is, and don't want it much bigger.
I CO Vianne for the outfit along and love it so far, it's coming along so quickly.  I also cut the fabric for the dress today.
My latest socks are progressing nicely.  I love working taat, but will watch out for YO's next time.
Finally, I frogged one of my cardigans last week, as the yarn wasn't right for it and I never wore it, even though I loved the yarn.  So, after several hours of frogging later I am knitting nine twenty two - a cowl that will be super squishy and cosy.
If you fancy joining us, our year starts again in two weeks, find out more here.

  1. Lovely shawl. Love the color of Vivienne and it will be gorgeous when completed. Your socks are so pretty. Lacey socks are so lovely when done but can be a pain while making.

  4. What an amazing shawl. That must have taken great patience to complete and to frog your jumper. I looks forward to seeing the finished socks.
    Happy knitting,
