It’s not been the type of week that makes for a very interesting YOP update. I have made tons of progress on both the Reunion Cowl, (I’m pretty sure I should be able to finish it today), and very slow but ongoing progress on Flavia. I also intend to remove the log cabin pieces from the bedroom and return them to the living room. If it’s in front of me where I can see it, the guilt will force me to work on it. I decided to join in a dishcloth challenge and finished my first cloth. I used one ball for the cloth and have 5.5 balls to gift to a friend they are sitting by the door and clearly marked for her so I am considering them to be out of my stash. It’s been a lovely knitting week, just not an exciting one.
Hope everyone had a great week.

I have the same guilt reaction to visible WIPs :).

You’re making headway, that’s the important part. Keep at it. I need to update my list now that I’ve made my post. Wondered if you knew how to do the line through a word thing on blogger?

Good idea to put the project out in front of you and well done on your first dishcloth.

I know that feeling too, Babette has been spread out in my living room for most of the week. I just can’t carry the colours in my head any more. Good work on the dishcloth and your other projects, it’s so nice to get a productive, non-froggy week.

Sounds like you’ve had a good week and getting your ‘out’ up to 8.5 is a big march forward!

Slowly but surely. One can even move a mountain with a shovel, given enough time. For us, make that a mountain of yarn and needles instead of a shovel! Keep it up! You inspire me.

What’s that saying …… slow but steady wins the race ?? Have a good week. xoxox

Can’t wait to see the Reunion Cowl finished! And I agree, stash gifted is stash gone.

Most of my weeks seem to be this way! 🙂 I sure wish I had a friend who was kind enough to gift me with 5 balls of yarn–I hope she knows how lucky she is. I joined the dishcloth challenge and my first one is completed and a picture is in my update.
Hope you have a lovely week–

Your list is looking good, you have so many things crossed off! Steady progress is always good 🙂
