In other exciting new Stash Dash started on May 24 and runs until August 24, I believe. This is to motivate knitters to knit from their stash, not buy new yarn, and heaven knows I could do with that motivation. Hence why I have a few more things than necessary cast on, but if I finish them all that will be amazing.
Also basically you can finish something you started on before Stash Dash started which means it also makes you finish a few things you have had on the go for a long time as well.
As for the EPP...I discovered that I did not have nearly as much cut and mounted as I thought I did, and so well I guess I will need to spend an evening fussy cutting in order to make some progress there. Sigh. I got so many done this month though, and I have prepped a lot of bits and pieces so that I can sew my little heart out. I plan on sewing on an upcoming plane journey instead of knitting as it takes up less room.
