A Counting Rhyme

Laeticia socks, completed Monday 6th. Still to wash and block.

How the Leaves Came Down, Cascading Leaves Shawl, completed Friday 10th. Still to wash and block.

Pink Swallowtail Shawl completed Sunday 12th. Still to wash and block.

Laminaria Shawl, languishing. This is what I am supposed to be working on, but I guess I have some temporary issues with it and it is better left until I really want to work on it.

Tay-lor-made, Herringbone Rib Socks WIP. Making slow and painful progress. Hate them, HATE them! But they look so good, I have to keep on plugging away at them.

Echoes of Eden fingerless gloves WIP. Picked these up to knit on yesterday. They should be prioritised, as they are for giving away. Pretty yarn. I would be working on these, really I would, if it were not for…

…the lure of The Girasole WIP. I caved in last night. After two repeats on the Echoes of Eden, and a few rounds of herringbone rib, I rustled through my work basket and seized this. I knitted the stitches onto the Addi Lace needle… and off I went. It is such a joy to knit on and provides a real high. I can see this being knitted to the exclusion of all else – when I should be doing this…

…the Bayret beret, targeted for UFO-busting at the beginning of this month. And also Those Infernal Mittens, similarly targeted… not to mention man socks….

I don’t have a problem.

Do I.
