July

July is officially over, isn't that amazing???
For July I finished, the Moss Diamond Blanket, it is a miracle! It looks gorgeous see:

This by now has already reached the baby that it was intended for, I do hope they enjoy it. 

I finished Persuasion, which is a good job done. I like Persuasion, I like the plot the ideas everything about it, and I like Austen, but maybe I am too much of a dialogue person, and this book really did not have as much dialogue in it as I would have anticipated, which was both fascinating and a slight let down, but I have read it now which is good.

Looking at my list it is really getting no shorter just longer....that is not a good thing at all.

Knitting I have on the go:
  1. Dragon Stole: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/dragon-stole
  2. Illuminated Lines Blanket: Thank you Knit Picks
  3. Circlet Cardigan: Thank you Knit Picks
  4. Fingerless Mittens: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fingerless-mittens-8
    1. I have 1 complete and about 25% of another one complete, a matching pair is within my grasp. These are beautiful, I want to do them on smaller needles with smaller yarn, it will take longer, but they will be less thick. Sadly these ones are in black which makes them hard to photograph nicely.
  5. Reverie Beret (I have done so many of these I could do them in my sleep, but I have made 1 or 2 minor adjustments to make it my own)
  6. Entrelac scarf, I do not think I am going to finish this per se... who knows
  7. Feather and Fan Blanket
  8. Mitered Square blanket in Parrot...I was crocheting this into something, but I did not like it, I still don't really like it but it will happen. 
  9. Moss Diamond Blanket
      1. This blanket was started so that I would use up some skeins of yarn that I had purchased for something else and then not used, now I need to buy more yarn to finish up this project evil curses abound. 
        1. Went to buy new yarn, and there is on of this colour available at the moment...WHY DO YOU HATE ME!! Thank you Danielle for saving my skin, and having a skein of yarn handy.
  10. 10 Stitch Square Blanket
      1. I am using up yarn from the first Hue Shift Afghan, it should be a good time, I hope it works.
  11. Moss Diamond Blanket in Purple - for Paul
  12. Banana Bunches
    1. This is going so well, it is amazing. It is a four row repeat, which some say is tedious, but for me right now, and the amount of brain power I can extend it is great. 
Crocheting I have on the go:
  1. Corner to corner blanket in Green and Pink
Books:
  1. Outlander
  2. Longbourn
  3. Heartless
  4. Pride and Prejudice
  5. Persuasion
Yet to start:
  1. Baby Blanket for Chris - Boy
  2. Baby Blanket for Heather - Girl
These two are on the pile of things to start, but I have no idea what I want to knit for
