Year of Projects: Week 40

Well I actually completed a project!  A pair of socks that I started February of last year!

The details are on Friday's post....

I have also realized it is only three weeks until Rhinebeck, so yesterday got the first sleeve done and started the waistband on my Rhinbeck sweater...Slopes..

Not sure I'll finish it, the yarn is "farm" yarn so quite rough I kept getting "pokey" finger yesterday from the needles....

It's also Socktober, so while I will work on socks, the sweater is my focus....but I did go etsy shopping to take advantage of some of the coupon codes...I did post a stash acquisition update yesterday from what I acquired at the Adirondack festival...today I am heading out to a smaller Fiber and Farmer's market...

So that is me for now.....

Around the World Afghan: (April 2010): about ¼ done - I looked at this recently and I'm still liking it, so I'll keep it...maybe make it a baby blanket instead.
