Knitting List

Okay, I know I just posted a few minutes ago, but I was looking through my list of knitting goals, and I felt like updating it.

This is what it was back in February:

1. Bryan's Birthday present
2. finish the scarf, purse, and poncho WIPs
3. Hat for my sis
4. fingerless mitts for myself and a friend
5. Hooded scarf for mom
6. house-slippers for my sis
7. afghan for myself
8. 25 assorted stocking stuffers
9. first pair of socks!
10. learn fair isle

Well, as of right now, I've completed numbers 1, 5, 9, and 10(mostly). Those WIPs? I scrapped the scarf, finished the purse, and that damn poncho is still sitting there mocking me. I'd almost forgotten about the hat for my sis. I need to pick up more yarn for it, anyway. I made myself a pair of fingerless mitts, and I'm trying to convince myself to do a pair for my friend this week, since I'll be seeing her Friday for her b-day, and that way I'd have a present.

Slippers - I've found a pattern, and I know what type of yarn I want to use, but haven't even bought it yet. That afghan is currently the bane of my stash (I had no idea lace knitting was so hard), but I have at least started work on the stocking stuffers. I'm about halfway through the first one, and I have yarn and a pattern for another. I'm debating what I'm going to do for the rest of my family. I know I'm making scarves for my aunts and sister, but I might actually buy something for my cousins and uncles. I don't think they'd want scarves or hats, really, and I don't actually have the money to buy that much yarn right now, anyway.

Still, generally, I'm doing pretty good - I've knocked off 3 or 4 of those items, which isn't too shabby for 2 and a half months. I've added a few more projects I want to do, of course, too, though, so maybe I'd better stop blabbering on to myself and get to work...
