July 2018


July, good bye July.
I have got 0 Medallions completed for my quilt...
I did though finish about 4 hats, yes I am still knitting hats, goodness knows why or what for, but I am, and that is okay with me. 
I have also got my butt in gear and am making progress on the last quarter of the Hue Shift in 5 colours, so with any luck the blanket itself should be finished quite soon, and then just the boarders to put on it, and a home to find it as well.
As for August, I will be away for the first 2 weeks of august, and I am debating taking knitting with me, but I am also debating cutting out loads of fabric, and focusing solely on my EPP for 2 weeks, if I get 2 medallions done great, if I get 5 done great, but it takes up much less space than knitting, but is not as travel friendly as I can knit socks in the dark, but I cannot sew EPP in the dark. This is more for plane entertainment, or I could glue on the plane, you never know. I have no idea what I want to do.

FO's:

  1. Dino Teal socks for Charlotte
  2. Streckle Socks for me
  3. Figarita - she is adorable

WIP's:

  1. Lestrange Cloak
    • I really want to say that I finished this, but I did not. 
      • I soon will have 5 sleeves for this sweater not just 2 or even 3. The first one was too short, the second too are not wide enough to go around the tops of my arms, and as much as I want to just be able to fix them as they are now, that will make me unhappy. So I shall get there, but it will take me longer
    • The sweater as it stands now, a sleeveless one is gorgeous and I would for sure wear it with no sleeves, but 
  2. Camp-side Cardigan
    1. Woops this just slipped and fell onto my needles, there was nothing I could do. 
  3. Tardis Afghan
    1. Hue Shift 5 colours
      1. 1 quarter to go!!!
        1. CO is 18 stitch maker CO 17 with a CDD (I keep forgetting what my cast on is, so here we go, never to forget)
      2. Seeing as how it is now Spruce Meadows season this will be my knitting for while I am sitting in the trailer, waiting for people to give rides too :)

          1. Illuminated Lines Blanket: Thank you Knit Picks
