So I cleaned out my knitting stuff over the weekend

I am not in as bad shape as I thought with all of my WIPs. I have many things on needles and some not on needles that require handsewing or other peicing done.

I have one sweater, one wrap, one summer sweater t-shirt, one tank top, one shrug... all for me, on needles in various stages, most more than a quarter done.

I have 5 bags that need finishing: handles to be added, linings to be sewn. I have two scarves on needles, but i just finished a cabled scarf and a neck wrap/scarflette, to be listed on etsy.

I have 2 GooGooMonsters and 1 mini monster to stuff and needlefelt for my shop and 3 minis to make for an order for someone in my knitting group (she crochets).

A sneak peek at the scarflette I am listing today:



Isn't it pretty? I won't mind if this doesn't sell, when it expires, I will keep it. It is so so so so soft and very snuggly. It is a wool and acrylic mix yarn and the colors remind me a sunset in the fall. I love it. I made up the cable pattern, and by chance, the cable on one edge makes a nice undulating ripple. It looks impressive.

I can't wait to take pics of the cable scarf too. It is sooo nice. Again, I will have a hard time partin with it, but I plan on making one for myself in brown or burnt orange or lime green.

So now that everything is sorted I can concentrate on things that need to be finished. The problem with bigger projects like sweaters, is that I get bored easily. I try to switch them out while working.
