The past little while has been very busy! The time that I have had to knit has consisted of hauling an easy-to-multitask project in my bag, which has lately been the Rowan Felted Tweed scarf. Even then, I’ve not made enough progress on it to make a seemingly big difference.
I did, however, treat myself to a gift today, as it was on sale:
No, not the sock yarn (Regia Surprise Color), that was from my last yarn store trip. It was the first thing to be wound on my new ball winder! I then realized I got overexcited, and should wind things that I plan to use soonish.
I wound up (haha) winding all of this:
From left: Top is a grey wool skein I am making a friend a hat out of; the bottom two are the possum fur yarn. Middle is Tahki Cotton Classic, which I don’t PLAN on using soon except maybe for a babything, but the hank gets tangled SUPER easily so I figured it’d be safer in a ball. Fall colours on top are for the second jaywalker if/when I get around to it, and under that is the yarn I made my first socks out of (might be enough in there for a pair of ankle socks, maybe). Under those are the two skeins of merino I had that were loosening up and causing tangles, so again, safer in a ball. The two front balls are both Noro Silk Garden in different colorways. Perhaps an alternating striping scarf?
I plan to wind a few more second-balls for current projects tomorrow. But I very much like my investment.
Current projects that need to be worked on: Monkey sock, newest babything, and perhaps one of the scarves. I regret to mention that I have about 8 projects on needles right now. I need to clear some of those out, and wonder if I even want to work on a few of them, or if they were a spur-of-the-moment thought.
But to frog a project that’s going well? Augh!
