Finishing

I realized this morning that I haven’t actually finished a knitting project since late January. That is somewhat embarrassing for someone who claims to knit all the time.

On the needles currently:

Rogue sweater. I need to finish the hood and sew the sleeves in.

Mind the Gap socks, one done, second about a third done.

3 lace shawls in various stages.

Trillian:

I think the problem, if you wish to call it that, is the three lace shawls. I’ve gotten sucked up by the shiny and started too many, so I’m not finishing any of them.

I’m going on a marathon to finish Trillian. It’s a brainless knit, all garter stitch except for the lace edge at the end of each row. I need to knit until I have about 8 grams* of yarn left and then do the lace border and this is done.

23.1 grams left. I’ll post updates along the way.

For those of you who don’t follow me on FB, we have a new family member.

Meet Ripley. We rescued her from the Humane Society about 10 days ago. She’s probably about 8 months old. I think she’s settling in nicely!

*I’m not stupid. I’m going to give it a bit of a cushion, maybe stop the main body section at 12 grams or so.
