So that makes my April knitting FULL. Here are the goals: 1. <a href="http://blog.buzzandfuzz.com/search/label/Fleur">HSS3 socks</a>: Hogwarts Sock Swap socks: <del>I need to finish knitting the socks and finish putting together my package before April 15th. I already have a couple of goodies for the package.</del> Finished 4/29/08 2. <a href="http://blog.buzzandfuzz.com/search/label/Mystic%20Light%20KAL">Mystic Light KAL</a>: Clues are released each Wednesday. I will be very happy if I can keep up with each week (I've already behind...). UPDATE: only finished <a href="http://blog.buzzandfuzz.com/2008/04/clue-1-done.html">clue one</a> in April 3. Reversible baby sweater: <del>I will be making (and finishing) this the first weekend in April at Claudia's retreat. </del> <a href="http://blog.buzzandfuzz.com/2008/04/cape-ann-knitting-retreat.html">Finished</a> 4. <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/monthly-adventures-2008">Monthly Adventures (Ravelry group):</a> Swapping yarn this month to go with the beads from last month. Soon we will be knitting bags with the beads and yarn we have received! UPDATE: swap mailed and received! 5. and 6. Project of the Month (<a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/project-of-the-month">Ravelry</a> group): I was really hoping this group would be working on a project I could resist this month. Instead, we are doing two projects and I want to knit them both! I'll give the full details later, but the projects are "40 year felted bowl" and a knitted book cover. UPDATE: never even casted on! 7. Loose Knit Group (<a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/a-loose-knit-group">Ravelry</a> and <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/alooseknitgroup/">Yahoo</a> group): We are making bags this month. I am hoping to make a twined knitting MP3 bag using the wrist warmer pattern from my Twined Knitting group (<a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/twined-knitting">Ravelry </a>and <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/twinedknitting">Yahoo</a> group). This would be a gift for one of my girls. (Loose Knit group goal: to knit some presents before the holiday crunch!) UPDATE: yep, maybe next month... There are other things I would like to add to the list, but the idea here is to make it possible for me to complete everything. So I will not add anything else for this month and will try my best to complete all 7 goals! Angelahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10815952279142046165noreply@blogger.com
