I may have lost count, but I’m pretty sure this is my 18th WIP, I think my last one was in October!<\/p>\n

These socks were knit for Sockdown, month 4. They’re called Basket Case Socks<\/a> and they were a pretty quick knit. I kept getting distracted by Christmas prep for the kids – first Christmas in a new country with all our stuff back home meant I needed to round up a lot of the traditional comforts for them and to be honest, that wasn’t easy. Most of November was eaten up with planning and then of course December was full of doing! I just casted on for Aramis Socks<\/a> last night, so there’s not much to report on that front other than to say I’m making a dent on my first day out of the gate!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between socks, I’m still working on my Beekeeper Quilt<\/a>. I have a list of projects I really want to work on this year, but I think I will make a rule for myself that everything has to be made with sock weight yarn so I can use all my scraps for the quilt. I’m looking forward to finishing my quilt this year but I do love the look of all my hexi puffs on the table like this. When I come to the end of a scrap ball, I start up with the next in line and I love those puffs the most! Here are my favorites out of the 200+ that I have so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m nervous to admit that I want to take on another knitting challenge this year, in addition to the 12 pairs of socks for Sockdown 6 and the finishing the beautiful quilt from all these puffs – I want to do Tiny Owl Knits 13 in 2013<\/a>. The Beekeeper’s Quilt is a Tiny Owl Knits<\/a> project and all her (Stephanie Dosen) projects are equally adorable and full of whimsy. Dare I try it?! Someone encourage me!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
