What I have been doing and what is on the short list:
Volunteer in the garden: Spunky Monkey |
- Permutations: A Dan Doh poncho pattern, travelled to Australia with me. I got quite a bit done on the flights and I'm currently working on the last 40 or so rows, and I want to wear this at our knitting retreat in June.
- Sommerloch sweater: It is done except the bottom edge curls up a bit and the shoulders need to be tightened up a bit. I'm lazily pouting about it, but really... it would take a couple of hours at most to make it wearable, and it does fit.
- Sunsets and Sand sweater: I stopped working on it before I left on vacation last May. I think I'm half way. I need to figure out where I am and get working on it!
- The Beiderwand pillow tops: They are off the loom but need wet finishing and pillow-top-making.
- Shirt made out of paper fabric: I finally sewed up a muslin without darts from the Natalie pattern and it looks fine, so I can proceed with figuring out the rest of the project. I did by some cotton/linen to make the shirt first so I have more practice. For other fabrics, I think I'd like to put the dart back in and make it work, or move the dart to the shoulder and release it in a cute little pleat. And I found a cute collar trick in Threads magazine I need to try.
- I also need to get hanging hardware on the ikats so that they may be hung...
- There is currently nothing on the looms, either. The study group is working on combo weaves which I'm not excited about at the moment, so I'm tempted to use a kit I got from KS's stash for advancing twill scarves.
