Where I'm at...in my knitting frenzy.

I've got serious knit project ADHD.

I HAVE to finish up some projects, before I can go on...and start another. I started the Daisy sweater from Knitty.com I have several friends who have baby girls (in fact one is turning 1 in March, another in September...) so I'd like to be able to give this to one of them.

Other projects on my needles.

Fetching for my friend Kara, done in black/white malabrigio. An altered Fetching done for ME, in camo colors.

A kitty cat, which I have to say is bothersome. I already KNIT it, but I got cocky (who me no never) and the body is too long....I've already stuffed and sewn him and rather frog him and re-knit, I decided he was a present for some cute child, and I would knit another one for my friend Bari's birthday. Which is who the original kitty was for....


I have a beautiful patons wool ease scarf in Harvest for.. I *think* either my mom or dad. Possibly daddy for fathers day.

I have a black/white scarf for my husband (which BTW was started in NOVEMBER....)

I also have a list of projects TO start a mile long including a sock tutorial (yes I want to do a tutorial first), lizard ridge blanket, Kiri shawl.... another calorimetry and a clapotis.

Finished Objects this week so far:
A hat in Cascade Magnum in a brown/green/orange rust color. According to the husband, it is the warmest hat EVER, and could sustain his entire body in negative 20 degrees.

A felted bowl in...Cascade Magnum same color (can you tell I have some of this yarn).

The real reason for knitting in the Magnum BESIDES that it is damn quick and easy, is that I have some SERIOUS birthday yarn stash coming in, and if I don't clean out some space (and let's face it Magnum takes up a LOT of space), I might have to go buy another Tupperware container, which... in turn could drive my husband over the edge to throw me or my yarn out.

Tomorrow I am taking a fetching to work (probably kara's) because if I DARE take the damn baby sweater to work there will be rumors for MONTHS.
