Craft On: Works in Progress

Everything I'm working on is close to finished. Even the hat that looks like it is just started. I've knit the cast-on edge to the live stitches and started the decreases, which will make the hat itself go rather quickly. I'm more than half way through the leg on the second sock for Lentilla. I'm half way through the first sleeve on Amelia's sweater. I'm half way through a pair of socks for a friend of ours.

However, except for the baby socks, I'm not sure when I will finish anything. The socks will probably be finished this weekend, as I am working on the hat more during the work week. The hat should have been finished two weeks ago, but life was getting in the way. The sweater shouldn't take long, but somehow these garter stitch sleeves are taking forever. This isn't a great feeling right now.

For a while there, it felt like I was making really good progress, but it seems to have slowed a bit. So, for instance, I only finished one full project each in both February and March. However, I have three projects that are at least half complete, two of which are nearly finished, and 'Igal that isn't quite that far along, but will move quickly now. I think next week I will be more cheerful about my projects, though. Once I get a couple more finished things, I will feel better.

Anyway, I finished Christmas Cupcake Murder, and started Fortune Cookie. They are both silly, little series, though I like the Cookie Jar series a bit better. I'm nearly finished with both series, and then will have to wait like all the other people in the world. I picked The Joy of Yarn up again, and think I will be finished soon.
