Project Distractions

I’ve got way too many projects going right now.  The good news is that the Veronica sweater is nearing completion, though I will have to stick with short sleeves.  I found the perfect hooks to use as closures for the front and even started sewing then on only to decide that I want to reverse them.  Oh, well.  I’ll probably sit down and finish that up sometime in the coming week.

Today I finally managed to finish winding that 900+ yards of yarn for the sample I’m supposed to get finished in a couple of weeks.  I’ve actually got another skein of the stuff, but I’m not even going to think about winding it unless I absolutely have to!

Then there is the hoodie baby blanket that I’m still plugging away at.  (Why, oh why, do I fall in love with the knit baby blankets?  This is what I’m supposed to know how to crochet for.)  At any rate, I think I’m just going to knit to the end of my current skein before binding off and starting on the hood part.  I’m hoping that will go quickly because I know for sure that the border will take forever.

And finally, I’m working on knitting a kitchen towel out of leftover cotton yarn from my Log Cabin baby blanket.  It’s actually looking kind of cute for something I’m just winging, so I’m feeling a little proud of this project.  (Plus, I just got passed the halfway point, so it’s starting to look somewhat finished, which always feels good.)

At this point, I can pretty much pick up a project no matter what room I’m in, which keeps me wonderfully busy, but it means that my progress on all of them is starting to feel a little slow.  Fortunately, after this coming week, I have a week off of work.  I’ll be using some of that time to work on a sewing project, but I’ll at least get some pictures uploaded of all this other things I’ve been working on.
