Y2: Self-Imposed Year of Projects - Update #38

Happy Sunday :)

It's been a pretty busy last few days around here with Husband's surgery and my MIL being in town and Little Man being a pill and so on and so forth. I haven't had much time for anything, to be honest...though I have tried to make time.

On the WIP side of things, I started another project without finishing anything new. It's not a big deal and I'm perfectly okay with it.

During Husband's surgery, I needed some relatively mindless projects. I started out working on the Baby Surprise Jacket. I'm at the point where I start working the middle "body" stitches for 20 rows (or something)...so I stopped there. My ball was getting smaller and I didn't want to have to stop in the middle of that to change balls (because I don't have any more wound yet). So, I worked almost 20 rows on that before stopping. 

I worked on my Soooper Seeekrit Swap Project. I've past the halfway point but I didn't work on it much. My head just wasn't in it for that, I guess. 

So, that's when I started the new dishcloth. Prior to leaving, I dug out some cotton from my stash (in this instance, it's Peaches & Creme Ombres from Pisgah Yarns in "Shades of Green") and tossed it in my knitting bag. I figured, if nothing else, I could work on a dishcloth...which I did. 

Otherwise, during the week, I worked a couple rows on my Freeport Vest, I've finished the first chart of the first of my Dragon's Egg Socks, and I'm still working on my Traveling Vines socks...but it's been a long week and I don't remember what all I've worked on. Oh well.
