Paws for approval

Began the day sewing harvest-blanket panels together so I could release the double-ended stitch holders from their confinement. Three done, one to go (one panel still on the needles) and laundry called out to me...

Upon my return:

then

 I'm having a little trouble sewing that fourth panel on.....

Traffic Alert

This morning I realized that, as I approach the front neck shaping for weekend-raglan, ALL my double pointed, end-capped stitch holders are being used for harvest-blanket panels. Sooo what to do?

Start two pairs of Socks! brainless and undulations-socks (gotta have two travel projects in case one crashes)

Is there logic here? YES. I'm on the last panel of harvest-blanket. The assembly will be done at home, thus releasing the stitch holders. I will be needing socks soon and felt inspired to start both pairs, one for travel and one on Stand-By.

All the other projects are Home projects, so i'll work on those as the Spirit moves me.

Happy yarncrafty!

Update

ordered yarn for jackie and sundance-market-bag from Webs; closeouts are toooo hard to pass up! (My long term goal here is to work each Berroco and Classic Elite Yarn Newsletter.)

Still reworking my knitting plan; I've gone back to my original plan of one Receipt project, one Stash project, and one Various Pamphlet project = R-S-VP.
Receipts are exactly that:  i've saved my yarn purchase receipts and have placed them in chronological order. My oldest goes back to 2004 and is represented by wrapped-in-ripples.
Stash is my Ravelry Stash file in alphabetical order.Currently weekend-raglan fills the bill.
Various (or Vogue) Pamphlet is a work in progress. Currently too many on my needles: jackie, tanya, .sundance-market-bag, harvest-blanket and ribbed-gloves.

Knit on!

Feeding the (yarn) animals

harvest-blanket and weekend-raglan have been my travelling companions this week.
harvest-blanket now has one more square done.
weekend-raglan has a body and two sleeves up to the armpits.

My other plan for a Project of the Day (POD) is not working.
I've overcommitted myself to myself and it's starting to feel like work instead of fun....like I've created a second JOB for myself. This is not good and needs to be changed NOW.

A website I love: free clicks to feed animals, organic, free-trade and recycled items for sale that also support the animals, TAKE A LOOK!

Shuffle up and Deal!

Restart me with a new setup for this week:
Sunday:  Tanya
Monday: Sundance Market Bag
Tuesday: Weekend-raglan
Wednesday: Fisherman's-watch cap
Thursday: Ribbed-gloves
Friday:     Wrapped-in-ripples
Saturday:  Lacy-leaves-tunic

harvest-blanket and Weekend-raglan sleeves may be transit projects.
We'll see....

Cleanup on Yarn Isle

Ribbed Gloves got left behind today; cleanup on other projects instead:

Berroco KnitBits® #2 received more labor on the bottom band and  weekend-raglan has 4 more inches of stockinette on the body and a longer sleeve. wrapped-in-ripples has one color band completed.

Not much for today knitwise; i've been planning and organizing my patterns and catching up on my "yarny-goodness" magazine reading.

Rainshadow benefit

 POD update: weekend-raglan 4 inches left to go in Stockinette stitch IN THE ROUND to underarm seam. Can she make it without losing her mind? And the knitting goes on. Started sleeve. Finished cuff and began main body of sleeve. Body looks like good podcast-listening project.

TP update: harvest-blanket 1.5 squares yesterday and 1.5 squares today...Transit is good knitting time. Only 1.5 strips to go or 9 squares.

I also attended the Rainshadow Charter High School Fundraiser at Barnes & Noble Today: "A children's play written and produced by Rainshadow students will be shown upstairs at 5:30 PM-6PM in the Children's literature section. Other students and adult artists will perform on the first level following the production."
 I purchased Country Weekend Knits - pretty, pretty classic British knits that I NEVER tire of seeing and dreaming of - and Zen and the Art of Knitting, an inspirational compendium of essays, to add to my collection.
A wonderful time was had by all!
