A Year of Projects Update - week 4

So we are on our hols!  We went to do a car boot yesterday morning and made a few pennies and a bit of space.
I have some progress this week.
FO's
I finished the tea cosy and it has gone to it's recipient.
WIP's
I got totally over excited by the sheep and here are my first two!  I love them - the first was the grey one.  There were numerous mistakes with this one, not least the fact I cannot Kitchener stitch.  I have avoided it with socks this far but now I may need to learn. They have no faces as yet, but they will soon.  Daniel reckons the grey one is naked!
I have made some progress on Buchanan.  I have finished the waist shaping so now it's a few rounds working even and then onto the slow bust increasing.
I haven't touched the socks as I am taking them next week on holiday and on that note I will be posting late next week, but will post!
Acquisitions
Not as yet, but I saw a bag on Instagram and decided I could make it.  So I have bought some fabric to make me a bag and some PE bags for the boys, it should be with me soon so will show you next week.

    The tea cozy and the yarn you used for it is just the cutest! Love the sheep and your Buchanan is coming right along...you are a speedy knitter. Enjoy you holiday and I can't wait to see your bag.

    I like the checked design of the tea cozy. And those sheep! They're almost too cute for words, Lucy. :) I say almost because we've always got words. Can't wait to see any others that you make.

    Baaaaa! nice sheep! Kitchener stitch takes lots of practice - I found you tube really helped me and then just alot of practice.
    I am taking my socks on holiday too - easiest to travel with for sure.
