Eight for 2008

What a way to start of the 2008 New Year. I have 8 WIP's.

My current love is Lilly from the new Debbie Bliss book. Started 12/23/07 it is voted to be finished first. The pattern is easily memorized, I've tried on a model, and is a fast knit.














The next two projects to be finished are the Henley Perfected and then a Drops cardigan is Muskat. Both lace projects with be worked on when the lace class begins the end of January at the LYS. I have worked both of them to the point in which the decreases for the arms begin. That is where the lace class comes into play. I still have to do the front on the Henley and the sleeves on the Muskat. But it is a huge head start. I wanted to do as much decreasing in lace pattern as possible during the class.


















By May I need to have my other socks that rocks socks finished. Why one may ask?


PACKWOOD KNITTING RETREAT of course!














Next on the burner is another Drops Cardigan done in Butterfly 10. I started it last July when the teenager was in Harborview Medical Center. One sleeve is done and I've ripped the body three times for various reasons. 1 year limit on this one.














Apparently we are all suppose to be getting together for Sunday Shawls. Well, that is what this puppy needs. A designated time each week to get a handful of rows done on the lace border.














These last two.... well may end up in the frog pond. The Baby Cable sock is just a yawn.... and the Softwist Cardigan.... I'm not really liking the whole shiney thing and also I fear that it may be too small....

Wow! You are a prolific knitter. The Henley Perfected is on my never-shrinking "To Knit" list so I may be bugging you for tips, etc. when I finally get to it. Hope you're feeling better.
