Progress Update

Posted by Emily

Last time I wrote, I had some problematic projects on the needles. As of today, I've completed two of those five projects and finally made some headway on a third. The Harvest Slouch Hat (rav) and my sister's socks (rav) are done! I've also picked up the stitches for the right arm of my sweater jacket and have made significant progress on the sleeve!

I still need to sew the DNA toy together and rip out the I-cord of the Dawn Stole. The DNA toy definitely needs to get done soon, but the stole isn't a rush.

In the meantime, I've finished a scarf (rav) and started on my March socks (rav). I nearly have the first sock done already, so I'm pretty happy with my progress.

And since it's spring, I did a little spring cleaning which included some serious stash organization. I got all my knitting books and patterns organized, as well as all my yarn. I took photographs of just about everything and posted it all to Ravelry, too. It's really nice to have my stash organized! If there's a pattern I see at work, I can just pull up Ravelry and search my stash for appropriate yarn. Very convenient.

I have decided that I need to stop collecting sock yarn though. I have two bins full of sock yarn! No other weight of yarn has a bin to itself except the bulky yarns, but let's face it, it's BULKY yarn. The downside is that I love sock yarn. :(

In conclusion, here's some yarn p0rn for your enjoyment.
