Project bags take over

Okay, there is no way I will be doing the Knitting Blooms KAL for the month of March.  I will be doing the KGASS, but I still have some time with that one.  I actually have the yarn and I have a pattern in mind, I just need to cast on!  What to do about the goodies? 

I started taking photos for the Etsy store, but determined that I need a better set up.  I posted four items in the store with the less than desirable photos, but I will redo all of the photos when I receive the new gear.  It is actually costing me more to start up then I realized it would.  Guess I should have known better.

WIPs

1.      I have finished 7.5 pattern repeats on the Diamonds in the Fluff socks.  I need to do at least 9 repeats before starting the heel.  Can I finish these by the end of week? 

2.      Again and again, I did not touch the STR January club socks.

1.      I made 2 drawstring bags this week.  They are coming along very nicely.  I even posted a couple of items to the Etsy store this week.    

Diamonds

I have some new commitments that will allow me more time to knit.  I feel sure I will get the Diamond socks completed by time the next birthday comes around (March 26), but I am not too sure about the Knitting Blooms KAL.  That KAL is for the month of March and it is fast approaching the middle of the month.  Plus, the Knitgirllls afghan square swap (KGASS) has started.  I really need to work on that one.  Now to find a pattern.

WIPs

1.      I have almost finished 7 pattern repeats on the Diamonds in the Fluff socks.  I need to do at least 9 repeats before starting the heel.  I am getting there. 

2.      I did not touch the STR January club socks this week.

1.      I made 2 more box bags this week.  I sold one!  My goal was to make 2 box bags and 1 drawstring.  I wasn’t able to get the drawstring done and selling one of the box bags left me with only 1 bag.  lol 

Overload

Why is it so hard to take pictures of the Wollmeise colors?  The picture shows a light bright blue when really the socks are made with Sabrina, a medium teal color.  There is more green. 

I can’t believe I am only trying to work on 2 projects right now.  Of course there are many projects that I wanted to start this month, but I have to analyze what is really workable.  I want to do a monster for the Knitabulls KAL, do the firefly socks for the Knitting Blooms KAL, finish the Diamonds socks and the Club socks, and finish some UFOs.  Well all of that is not really going to happen especially because I am trying to sew some more this month.  I am not going to do the monster, but I really want to work the other KAL.  I guess I will see what happens.

WIPs

1.      I completed one more pattern repeat on the Diamonds in the Fluff socks.  I love everything about this project, the yarn, the pattern and the colors! 

2.      I actually did a little on the STR January club socks this week.  I did a few rounds.

FO

1.      I made my 3^rd box bag this week.  Yes, I found issues with it.  I should not sew on days that I feel out of it.  That means no Sunday sewing!

2.      I finished the Aragorn socks just in time for my sister’s birthday dinner, but not in time for February KALs.  Oh well.
