Craft On: Nearing the Finish Line
I am half way through the neck, then I need to crochet the button band and loops, weave in ends, block and sew on buttons. It's nearly finished!!!
There are two secret projects I am working on at the moment, though I suppose only one of them is really a secret. One is the Saint Nicholas stocking for Shawn (you can see the first few stitches up there), and the other project is a secret. Amelia's stocking is also on needles, and I would like to have it finished soon, but I have until a couple days before Saint Nicholas as a cushion.
I'm trying so hard not to cast on anything else, until I finish both the gown and the secret project. After that, I don't mind having a few items on needles or hooks.
We are two thirds of the way through Emma with two weeks to finish it. Tonight will probably be the night I finish Double Grudge Donuts Doughnuts. The next book in the series comes out Thanksgiving week, and I have it on hold, but I might get a chance to get back to Milk: The Surprising Story of Milk Through the Ages in those couple weeks.
