Who knew that less than a year after I learned to knit, I'd already have a line-up of projects that exceeds my life expectancy?
I treated myself to a little shopping spree at Webs today (could not resist the great deals!) and then spent the rest of the drive home mentally tallying all of my planned projects -- for which I have the yarn -- and despairing of my slow knitting pace.
I started as a "process" knitter -- it was something to do while I watched TV, etc. But now I am getting project lust, and want to have finished items.
The wishlist as it exists right now:
- Mason-Dixon Baby Kimono for a new family member due in July (Blue Sky Organic Cotton)
- Socks for The Belle (Lorna's Laces Hawaii)
- Clapotis for me (Brooks Farm Fourplay)
- Linen stitch scarf (Cider Moon Giddy)
- Clapotis for mom (Lorna's Laces Lion & Lamb)
- Top Down Cardigan for me (Debbie Bliss DK Alpaca Silk)
- Top Down Cardigan #2 for me (Berger du Nord Silk)
- Lace Shawl for me (Malabrigo Laceweight)
- Hourglass Sweater (Malabrigo)
- Ribbed Striped Noro scarf (Noro Silk Garden - 2 colors)
- Ela's Favorite Hat for Bean (Noro Silver Thaw)
- Velvet Scarf from Scarf Style (Muench Touch Me)
- Ela's Favorite Hat for me (Noro Silver Thaw)
- Lacy hat for me (Louisa Harding Kimono)
- Cable and lace hat from Runway Knits (Malabrigo chunky)
- Mittens for me (Malabrigo chunky)
- My So-Called Scarf (Malabrigo Seleccion Privada)
hopeless.
