Knitting Report – April 13, 2018

Happy Friday, the 13th! I can’t believe how quickly time is flying by these days.

Patterns Added:

• Undertow MKAL – These are mystery socks and I thought about joining. I’ve loved Kirsten’s mystery socks in the past, but I got caught up in the Impressionists’ Shawl and never started the socks. Still could .. but probably won’t.

Yarn Added:

A bit of yarn was added. Madelinetosh had some new colors of Tosh Merino Light.

There was a String Theory update and that yar is kinda hard to come by sometimes.

A Few skeins of Shibui Staccato Sock but I have plans for this yarn so it was ordered with a project in mind.

Finally, the Sweet Georgia yarn I’ve already shown.

 

Projects I Worked On:

My Impressionists MKAL project has been shared enough that you all know exactly what I’m doing with it.

The Magnolia socks are down to the heel.

I’m also working on the second pair of Winter Rose socks but the foot is plain stockinette. I got a little bit done on those while waiting at the dentist office this week. No photo – they’re still in the car!

Knitting Plans for next Week:

1. Keep up with Impressionists MKAL
2. Work on Magnolia Socks
3. Finish second pair of Wood Rose Socks
4. Work on April UFO

Projects Started:

I didn’t start any new projects this week unless you count starting over for Impressionists Shawl.

  # of UFOs:

  These numbers do not count hibernating projects. Some hibernating projects have not been started but the yarn has been set aside so I keep them in my “projects” for my own ease of planning. Some hibernating projects should be ripped back and forgotten about. These numbers are the projects that really should be finished.
