Y3: Self-Imposed Year of Projects - Update #35

Happy Sunday :)

It's become quite apparent that I have full-blown BABY BRAIN. Last week, I forgot to add a project in my WIP List and then, even better, I forgot that I had finished said WIP and almost forgot to post about it on Friday.

But, I can remedy all that today. I think. I hope.

5. Snape's Stockings: started August 20, 2014
6. Sacrificial Goat #3: started August 27, 2014

This past week, I've worked a bit here and there on Snape's Stockings and I started the third Sacrificial Goat. I'm almost done with the first pattern repeat on the stockings (out of three) and I've finished the head/body and ears. That means I have four legs, two horns, and a tail...and stuffing and piecing and then I'm done with that one. Woo-hoo! Oh, and I worked on my Pacific Shawl...I almost forgot about that. I was just knitting along and I decided I should stop and count stitches...and lo, I had almost made it to the point where I would start the lace portion along the boarder. And then I managed to drop a bunch of stitches and while I think I got it picked up, there's still a teensy bit that turned out wonky. But, I have enough stitches, I know where I screwed up, and I'm ready to start the lace section.

As for Stormageddon, he's in there, doing his thing...and he's quite a wiggle worm. He's moved from one side to the other in the last week. He's still head-down but his little body went from the left side of my body to the right. He's also been punching me when he's uncomfortable. Silly boy. He'll be out soon enough :)


So, that's what's been going on around here. What I have left on my lists are as follows:

Children's Items
1. Elefante
2. Nottingham
3. Shaun
4. Gramps Cardigan (need to purchase - $6)
5. Smaug Hat

Items for Me (Selfish Knitting, FTW!)
1. Hermione Hearts Ron
2. Godric's Hollow Hat
3. Jabberwonky (which might be in the SSCB below but I don't remember) *
4. Gallifrey Fingerless Mitts
5. Weeping Angel Socks *
6. Stormont
7. Drip Drip Drop (which might be in the SSCB below but I don't remember) *

* I'll probably only pick one of these but, you know, choices and all...

 Secret Sock Club Bags
(These bags are already set up with pattern and yarn - I just pick one at random and no, I don't remember what I put in there right now...I can go look later, if you're really interested. I really probably should...but, honestly, nah...)

Designs
1. Little Man's Baby Blanket
2. Susan's Hat (adult and child versions)
3. Assorted Dishcloths
4. Traveling Vines projects (adult socks, baby socks, scarf, hat, fingerless mitts, shawl, etc.)
5. Pinwheel Market Bag
6. Anything else that comes along at the right time


You know as well as I do that I'm not going to get through everything. I'll be lucky if I finish anything from these remaining lists. But, you know, I can dream :) 

Anyway, that's about all I know for this week. I hope you've all had a lovely weekend and week and so on and so forth :)
