A little of this and a little of that ...

Four days of it!

Crocheting a Cardigan ...



Moving slow but sure.

Crocheting an Afghan ...



Also slow but sure. I was going to use a new yarn being carried down at Seed Stitch Fine Yarn, but the color I needed wasn't there and I needed to start this right away. The wedding is in September and I didn't get much notice. So I'll use the Accent Worsted from SSFY another time. There's still no guarantee that I'll finish this one in time ... so it might be for Christmas instead for the newlyweds.

Knit a Bella Mitten with Paton's Icelandic Bulky Wool ...



But haven't started the mate yet because ...

I've started another pair with Spud & Chloe Outer, a bulky wool & cotton blend for me ...



I guess you might be able to guess that I love this new yarn .... Spud & Chloe. Really?

The other pair will be completed and put in the Christmas basket for the grandchildren. I also have Paton's Icelandic Bulky Wool in a medium gray so I'm going to use it for another pair. This is a fast and easy pattern and I bet the girls will love 'em. But I'm also thinking of buying some Rowan Big Wool to make a pair for each of my sister in laws. Just thinking on it for now. Maybe I'll do a Christmas basket for them too ... and let them pick out something they like.

I'm getting all kinds of ideas from Debbie Bliss' new magazine too.



But mostly stuff for me rather than Christmas. I better not get off track.

I've been browsing some books too ...



Mainly for creative ideas for finishing. I love 'em!

Then of course I've gotten a little closer to peeking behind my bed and catching a painful glimpse to what I've stashed there ...



Keeping an eye of those MIA's that are haunting me ... like "spooks" calling out my name and whining, "finish me next ... finish me next".

V = Variety ...

As a variety of knitting is waiting in the corners of StitchingNuts home!

**[edited to add more to my habitual stashing below ...]



A Swell Yarn Shop's KeKay Duet is waiting to be a Slouchy Beret Hat!



A Fiddlehead Rainbow Shawl ... another luxury item for me is sulking until I can start working on her. But it doesn't call out to me any more than this one that includes the JoJoland yarn somewhere too. Remember this shawl? And my intentions of knitting her before Winter? Oh ya, it's still waiting for me to make it a WIP.



And ...



I couldn't help myself when I bought this JoJoland Swirl Scarf kit. There's something about scarves lately that have been atracting my attention.

Such as ...



Do you believe I plan to begin this one in January? [and Fabric N FiberFanatic remembered I said January 5th. But only if you cast on also, Sara.]

And I'm way behind on the socks ...



But they're waiting in a corner for me also.



Not to mention the Undertow Cape.

But when am I going to find time to do ...



This bag?

Time oh time, is time on my side? Will I finish these in this life time?

Well it would help if I would start this THIS Winter ...



And just go from there ...

[If you think there might be more in hiding ... well you could be correct. But if I confess to any more, I'll never get anything done.]

**Okay I should at least add what I bought just THIS week ...




But you see what I mean about the scarves, right?

What? Did you just say, "It doesn't matter"? It's all an obsession?
