Two years ago I started this blog as a motivational tool for myself. I needed to finish more projects than what I was starting. I think I'm still not focusing enough on any one project. So as of today I will try to prioritize my projects and make an honest effort to get them done in a timely manner.
WIPS:
Weaving:
- Horoscope Baby Blanket a la Bonnie Tarses
- Doubleweave project for class -- I'm going to use my handspun as a supplemental warp. This is due for November's class (17th/24th?). I'm going to give Doubleweave Plus a whirl -- with modifications, of course.
- Christmas gifts -- I'm still working on ideas for this one. It's a tad late in the game, but I do this every year. I can't think of Christmas until it starts to get chilly.
Knitting:
- One Baaad Poncho (modified, of course) - Just for me.
- Scarf on needles
- Felted bowls -- they aren't going to felt themselves!
Spinning:
- Finish the bobbin of single-ply mohair for the Doubleweave project.
Cake:
- This weekend I will be giving my mom some decorating lessons. She's hellbent on making a rose.
Craft Room:
- Clean and declutter!
Oh, and please feel free to share your ideas for a quick woven or knitted Christmas gift. Thanks!
Happy blogaversary!
If you are a sewer too, you could try making clutch purses or washing mitts for the ladies in your life. What to get/make for men always baffles me.
