Year of Projects: Week 22

Wow, haven't done one of these since April!
June 3 - 9 goals:

It's the last two weeks of the school year...that is my goal!

So haven't completed any of the previous goals either, but have added some projects...

June goals:
- finish or close to finish the Kiss Me, I'm Irish
- figure out and work the Fish Kiss Lips heel on Keep Swimming
- possible start moving yarn totes up to attic room, after logging what's in each tote
- swatch for the Waves Tank, then knit
- pull out The Meandering Top and see where I'm at (it's been hibernating)
- cast on for the Tegna top, the Vintersol sweater and the Rainbow Cardi  

So here is my list,  I have added four projects, two pairs of socks and two hats for friends.

My fiend, Danae asked for a slouchy hat...so Sockhead is on the needles.  The yarn is from Peggy Jane and is called Farewell, as a tribute to her Mom, who dies of early onset Alzheimer's.  Danae's mom also died from complications of that disease.

 With this yarn, I am making a hat for my friend Deirdre, who is battling cancer.  I going to write HOPE on it...it's just the band, so no progress pictures yet.

Cloudy Rainbows...no pattern....my vanilla sock at the moment

And I cast these on while waiting for my husband in Northampton, Mass (yes the home of WEBS, although I bought this yarn at Northampton Wool, I had already bought plenty at WEBS!)

So I think that is me all caught up now, or as caught up as I'm going to be....

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.

Shark in the Woods (11/27/14)- I really love this, but it's a lot of cabling and I'm not a fan..about 1/2 done.
