...I'm being constantly bombarded by Ideas. The latest one is double-knit in black and white on bitty needles with small sarquhar-like squares, and you decide which motif to knit next by rolling dice. It's amazing me because all I have to do is start actually knitting for extended periods of time and my to-do list grows and grows. but now I have yet another project for my queue, and I'm reminded of the fuzzy circle wrap I want to make, and and and and and. I need another one of me so i can knit more stuff!

Progress on the queue


July

[x] Finish Giulietta socks - b project
[ ] Finish the pink dress
[ ] Weeping angels socks
[ ] Finishing Sylvi
[ ] Finish Circles of Noro cardigan
[ ] Elysium cardigan


So now I am free to cast on for weeping angels but I'm going to wait until I make progress on the pink dress and that means all projects will be in coventry for the rest of the weekend while I knit stockinette in the round.

 August

[ ] Elysium shawl August c project
[ ] Brown brocade texture vest
[ ] Celtic knit cabled capelet
[ ] Colour work capelet
[ ] Better bucket hat
 



Something I didn't note - I already have the yarn for all of these projects, save the Better Bucket Hat.

HEY LOOK WHAT I FOUND

It occurs to me that since I have a lot of projects I want to do that I could keep track of them on a blog that connects to ravelry so anyone who wishes to read more of my distracted rambling about yarn can see just how many times I have an idea and then it changes or gets abandoned.

So I will now list my queue. which is unrealistically long. I know. I KNOW. But I want to put an order on things here so I don't forget about things that I want to do.

[ ] Finish Giulietta socks - b project
[ ] Finish the pink dress
[ ] Weeping angels socks
[ ] Finishing Sylvi

I know. that's way too much knitting. I will never do all that in the time provided. This is just a way to try and stay on track. I know that things are going to get deferred and new projects will pop up, but right now, I am only using knitting time on my Giulietta socks and the pink dress which is stuck in stockinette hell. 


this list will be revised and I'll talk a bit more about my knitting much more often. Promise.
