Just because I haven't been blogging doesn't mean I'm not knitting.


Quite the contrary actually!


Lets see I'll do a list since time is short:


1. Andrew's Weasley is done except the letter on the front. Just a picture of the sleeve I'm afraid. Its just green and stockinette anyhow.

2. Evan's Weasley is almost to the armholes. I'm taking break from the yarn--its getting cold here and my hands are itching for some wool and alpaca.


3. After frogging a a sweater for myself twice, finally decided on a pattern Thursday. I finished the back and the left front and started the right front(almost 8 inches in). Its a Drops pattern that was exactly what I wanted and its using less yarn than I thought it would! So I'll definitely have enough to finish it! that has to be finished by Friday.



4. I started a Christmas stocking for Mrs. Polly. She's had two grandchildren born this year. Thanks to Steph and Kelly for keeping me in business!


5. I am almost done a pair of slippers for the gazillion people on my list. 1 down, 7 more to go.

I'm starting to get that nagging feeling that I won't finish in time. I keep pushing it aside saying "Its only October, you have plenty of time" but I fear I will not make it! I refuse to make a schedule because I know if I don't keep it I'll be depressed!
I bought some yarn from a destash on Ravelry. Cherry Tree hill Sock in Peacock! Lovely stuff!

In other news, I attended the National Apple Harvest Festival on Saturday. Mom, Dad, my two brothers and of course Dan went together. It was really fun! I also found a vendor selling yarn! I didn't buy any because. . .


We're going to Rhinebeck next weekend! I reserved our campsite! I'm so excited that we're going on Sunday because the YARN HARLOT IS GOING TO BE THERE!!!!!!!! Hopefully I'll remember to take the camera!!!!





I'm slowly getting the dye studio up and running. I'm still not sure about my heat and water sources but I think I'll just let Dan take care of that. I have soo many ideas that I can't wait to get started again! I want to do some alpaca and some different weights but I can't until the studio is going!
