Tenth Year of Projects - Week 21

 



Another week!  A finished object and some progress to show on another project.

Finished Object:
1) Tegna - this sweater is (basically) finished!!!  I got going on the sleeves again this past week and finished them off!  I love the fit of this sweater!  I still need to block it so I will show you another picture next week.  But I am so happy to have it all finished!



Ongoing works in progress:
1) Slipstravaganza - this is a mystery shawl knit along by Stephen West.  The clues come out every Friday and I cast  this on on October 9th.  I am moving along on Clue #4 now!  The rows are LONG and it might take a few weeks to finish off the last clue (over 900 stitches per row and I have completed 19 out of 49 rows...)  I managed to add 11 rows this weeks so that is pretty good considering the number of stitches that is!!  I won't show any pictures of the shawl here because I don't want to spoil the surprise/mystery for anyone, but I do show it in my podcast if you are curious (and there are some pictures on my Ravelry project page).  

I just posted a new video on Saturday in case you want to check it out!  I would be so happy if you subscribed to my little channel ♥


I am also doing a WIP-it Down Week since I am on our Thanksgiving Break from university.  I am filming (relatively) short vlog style videos documenting my progress in case you want to check those out as well!

Tenth Year of Projects - Week 20




Another week!  A finished object and some progress to show on one project.

Finished Object:
1) Sorta Shorty Christmas Socks - They are all done!!  And I love them!!  I have enough yarn to make another pair of shorties if I do a contrasting heel and toe so I suspect I will be doing that one day.  Here they are:



Ongoing works in progress:
1) Slipstravaganza - this is a mystery shawl knit along by Stephen West.  The clues come out every Friday and I cast  this on on October 9th.  I am moving along on Clue #4 now!  The rows are LONG and it might take a few weeks to finish off the last clue (over 900 stitches per row and I have completed 8 out of 49 rows...)  I won't show any pictures of the shawl here because I don't want to spoil the surprise/mystery for anyone, but I do show it in my podcast if you are curious (and there are some pictures on my Ravelry project page).

Tenth Year of Projects - Week 19

 



Another week!  And only progress to show on one project.

Ongoing works in progress:
1) Slipstravaganza - this is a mystery shawl knit along by Stephen West.  The clues come out every Friday and I cast  this on on October 9th.  I am moving along on Clue #3 now and have one row left of the first half of that clue.  Hopefully I will get the second half done this week and get some of the final clue done as well!  I have not looked at the final clue yet so I have no idea what to expect!  I won't show any pictures of the shawl here because I don't want to spoil the surprise/mystery for anyone, but I do show it in my podcast if you are curious (and there are some pictures on my Ravelry project page).

Tenth Year of Projects - Week 18



Another week!  And only progress to show on one project.

Ongoing works in progress:
1) Slipstravaganza - this is a mystery shawl knit along by Stephen West.  The clues come out every Friday and I cast  this on on October 9th.  Over the past week I made quite a bit of progress on the second clue (I'm done 53 out of 60 rows).  The third clue came out on October 24th and the fourth clue came out of October 30th, but I have not looked at those clues yet so I have no idea what to expect!  I am hoping to finish clue number two today so I can get moving onto clue number three!  I won't show any pictures of the shawl here because I don't want to spoil the surprise/mystery for anyone, but I do show it in my podcast if you are curious (and there are some pictures on my Ravelry project page).

Tenth Year of Projects - Week 17

 



Another week!  And only progress to show on one project.

Ongoing works in progress:
1)  Sorta Shortie Christmas Socks - I added two rounds on this sock over the past week.      

2) Slipstravaganza - this is a mystery shawl knit along by Stephen West.  The clues come out every Friday and I cast  this on on October 9th.  Over the past week I completed the bonus clue and am nearly half way through the second clue (I'm done 25 out of 60 rows).  The third clue came out on October 24th but I have not looked at that clue yet so I have no idea what to expect!  I am hoping to finish clue number two and to get a start on clue number three before next week and before the final clue comes out this Friday!  I won't show any pictures of the shawl here because I don't want to spoil the surprise/mystery for anyone, but I do show it in my podcast if you are curious (and there are some pictures on my Ravelry project page).

Tenth Year of Projects - Week 16



So I completely forgot to do this last week!!

Ongoing works in progress:
1)  Sorta Shortie Christmas Socks - Over the past two weeks I have made some progress on these socks.  I now have the first sock complete and am moving down the foot on the second sock!    




2) Slipstravaganza - this is a mystery shawl knit along by Stephen West.  The clues come out every Friday and I cast  this on on October 9th.  We got a bonus clue the first week!  I am done clue number one and have three rows to go on the bonus clue and then I am ready to start the second clue (which was released on October 16th).  I have not looked at that clue yet so I have no idea what to expect!  I won't show any pictures of the shawl here because I don't want to spoil the surprise/mystery for anyone, but I do show it in my podcast if you are curious (and there are some pictures on my Ravelry project page).

Tenth Year of Projects - Week 14

 



Ongoing works in progress:
1) Tegna - I did lose yarn chicken, but I have located one skein!  I have paid for it already and it will be in the mail to me shortly, so I will be able to get my sleeves knit soon!  I did add the neckline this past week and all the tails are tucked in!  

2) Sock Scrap-ghan - I finally picked this up again and added eleven more squares!  I now have 45 squares left to go (and the border).  It was good to get more done on this one over the past week.

3) Sorta Shortie Christmas Socks - I cast on a pair of socks on Thursday and am making great progress on them!  I am hoping to add more to my Christmas box of socks!  I am using one of the yarns that I recently bought (one of the West Yorkshire Spinners yarns).
