I haven't done it in while so I'm assessing where I stand with my knitting goals - mostly because I don't have anything else to blog about.
I finished two of my goals the golf club covers and the Greensburg Squares. I'm downgrading the hats so that leaves two pairs of socks and a pair clogs for the rest of the summer.
As it's written, I want to finish one pair of socks, start another pair and work on Marshall's clogs.
However, I've been itching to do lace and I have quite a bit in the que. It may be I move the lace up and push the Loden CTH down a little. We'll see how I feel when I finish Mad Weave.
Summer Goals:
- Finish Mad Weave Socks - doable - I'm 2 or 3 repeats from the toe on both socks. I could be done in a week.
- Finish three more hats - I destashed the charity hat yarn by giving it to my sister, but then...Adrianne gave me hers. I guess the goal stays, but I'm moving to the rest of the year section.
- Finish three Greensburg squares - DONE - Yea!
- Finish - golf club covers for Jeff - DONE - Yea!
- Knit Marshall's clogs - I'll probably work on my socks first.
- Cast on (at least) socks using Loden CTH - I have several leaf motif patterns to choose from.
Rest of the year goals:
- Cinder's Fairy Godmother beaded scarf - should be a quick, fun knit just need to make the time.
- Cast on and enjoy knitting linen beaded shawl.
- Knit a few more hats - they are for a good cause.
- Knit the loksins sock pattern probably with co-op sock yarn.
- Knit at least 15 minutes a day, not because there is pressure to knit, but because I'm worth it. This may mean keeping a project in the bathroom, but hey, that is "my" time. Was that sharing too much?
- Spend less time on the computer talking about knitting and more time knitting.
- Really, stop buying yarn. I don't need another thing.
I've given up on not buying yarn. I enjoy it so why fight it. The SOWs are having a dyeing weekend at Heritage Arts in September. While I'm tempted to dye lots of sock yarn, I should consider other types of yarn. You know, so I can make other stuff.
As for knitting 15 minutes a day, no, but I am spending less time on the computer and more time knitting, hence all the finished projects.
