Here's my basket.
Here's what's inside. Maybe because we are full on into Spring now, everything I'm knitting is light colored and cheery looking.
Let's take a closer look. Of course the first two projects I'm working on are the ones that haven't been started. In fact, I haven't even finished winding yarn for them. I plan on knitting two Darwinia dresses for my two girls. I don't think I'll need to use up all three balls of yarn for each dress. I think it will take two and a half balls for the bigger dress and maybe a little over two balls of yarn for the smaller dress.
After that, I plan on focusing on my "G" shawl for the Lace A-Z challenge. This is the Glenallen shawl. Yes, that's a mega ball of yarn. The majority of it will go into this shawl. I think I'll have just a little bit leftover after this shawl is done.
When the "G" shawl is done, I will work on my "H" shawl for the Lace A-Z challenge. This is the Holbrook shawl. I've gotten the boring part of the shawl done, all that's left is the knitted on edging. I think it may take an entire ball of yarn to finish the edging, you know, that skein of yarn that I have not wound yet. Knitted on edgings are deceptive, it feels so close to being finished, yet they take a long time to knit and they use up a lot more yarn then you would expect.
Last but not least, I have to finish Cluaranach. The first half is finished and you can see I folded it up in the photo. I still have the second half to knit, which will take up almost the entire ball of yarn.
If I finish everything I'll add more yarn and projects. I'm not even sure if I can realistically finish all these five items. I remain very optimistic. I really am looking forward to working on all these projects and even more so to finishing them.
