Obligatory Title Here

Well, since I last posted, I've finished nothing, but started yet another gift project. This isn't on the list! Ah well. The List usually ends up getting laughed at anyway.

Speaking of getting laughed at--check out the WIPs below, if you'd care to snicker. Note how they grow! Note how the older projects get no love at all! Note how this keeps me up at night! (Well, actually, it doesn't.)

Finished: Um, nothing.

On the Needles:
Party-Time Apron: No change.
Devan: No change.
Sock: No change.
Lite Brite: No change.

Baby Love Baby Blanket: It’s about eight inches long—I’ll be cutting it close to the due date, but I have faith. I abandoned Hoover in favor of a pretty wavy pattern. Red and white Cascade 220 (I’m a Cascade 220 fool).

Rubby’s Sekrit Scarf: Four stripes out of nineteen. I’ll say no more, as it’s Sekrit.

Shelly’s School Spirit Scarf: Eight stripes out of nineteen—a tube scarf in black and orange Cascade 220. It’s going to be gorgeous.

In the Hoop:
Merry Cox Sailor's Huswif: No change.
Joe and Sally Snow: They’re all done but the finishing.
Wedding Snowflake Hardanger: No change.
