I have a very short attention span right now so I have a lot going.
Knitting-2 pairs of longies for the twins, shorties for ds, lizard ridge, and dishcloths for my Mommy (gotta get these done by Sunday)
Crocheting-2 pairs of longies, baby blankets, and dishcloths (again for Mom, on a deadline!)
Sewing and snapping-diapers for the babies, which are not coming out pretty! I hope they're at least functional!

I'm another one who has a short attention span. There are other projects that are in Project Purgatory, but the ones that are currently active are:
- Knitting Icarus shawl from handspun "Fire Spirit" Targhee in fingering weight
- Spinning laceweight yarn from ZenString March Fiber Club -- Pomegranite Merino Bamboo
- Felted purse for dd
- Desperately trying to finish Feather and Fan socks from Claudia's Handpainted so I can start playing with some of my ZenString co-op sock yarn!
 - 2 different washclothes in various states of completion. I wasn't thrilled with the yarn I was using for the first (it was mercerized) so I went onto another one using Sugar n Creme. I'm going to finish both before starting another!
What's even worse -- I've forced myself to stop starting anything else until at least these are done. But I spend the time trying to decide what to do next. So many choices! I never have enough time

The only thing I have on the needles right now is a lizard ridge square. I have actually finished everything else I started! It is a miracle, usually I have about 5 things going.
I am debating what to start next, I want to knit a dress with a really froufrouy skirt, some capris, a halter, a halter/jumpsuit a shrug to go w/ the romper I made for dd. ......hmmmmmmm, decisions, decisions!

Project purgatory! On the knitting needles: LTK soaker, just have front flap, seaming, legs to do. Woohoo!! And a hat, and a dishcloth I will never finish because cotton yarn SUCKS. Well, I hate it, anyway.
Not finished but cast off: Tiny Birds flat soaker. Putting off seaming up the sides! lol.
No crochet/sewing.
Cross-stitch: Just need to do evil French knots on Evelyn's birth announcement and it's done!
A new pattern just purchased that I need to get started (a pretty Marjolein Bastin one).

Sewing- prefitteds for ds, finish handsewing baby quilt, making extra large recieving blankets for swaddleing Thats it! MAYBE I can fit it all in with my nesting/cleaning frenzy I am on! |

OK, so I have knitting and crocheting ADD
 I have too many projects going.... some are very active, others don't get much love...Knitting -
-WWBN Secret Garden BBR Capris for Ella (1/4 through body)
-Uberknits Berry Splash BFL shorties for a custom (I'm working these a new way, and have about 1 1/2-2 inches of the body done)
-Dashing Dachs Lion Cub Stallion Merino shorties (at eyelet row of waistband)
-dishcloth from MDK (not the ball band one) - this has not been touched in weeks... I'm just not loving it.. but hope to pick it up again in a couple of weeks
-Knitpicks Merino Style/Hawaiin Memories shorties(am about 4 rows from splitting for the legs)
Crochet
-purewool shorties in the Butterfly colorway
-Swish Superwash longies for my cousin's daughter... I need to frog these and make her a tank top instead as I don't think I'm going to ever get them done, and if I do, they probably won't fit as the measurements I have for her are from October
 . For that reason, if I finish them, I'll still need to make her a tank and find a new home for these capris. |

ooh, I am so glad I'm not the only one who has multiple projects going at once! I like to look at it as just wanting a little bit of variety in my crafting....so here they are:
knitting: nothing serious right now (this doesn't include the many projects delegated to the bowels of my closet), but planning to start on another pair of newborn longies within the next couple of days crochet: blanket for dd out of her favorite yarn sewing: (the bulk of my projects) one newborn wrap tee that just needs a little bit of finishing and in various stages of working on 18 newborn fitteds and about 10 small fitteds. I'm a bit overwhelmed, which is why I keep returning to the knitting and crocheting..... |

Oh man, I just started on my first ever pair of doodle pants. So much for only doing 1 project at a time.
