I want to start a new project! And yet there are so many on the go.
This one …
And this one …I have to say I’m not feeling the love for this anymore.
Not to mention this one …
And the quilt I am making out of the girls’ baby clothes.
I want to start something else. I want to make something with this yarn. Not sure what yet – but I have 12 balls of it, so I should be able to make pretty much anything I want!

I store my yarn in various different places around the house and I decided it was time to get organised.
I spent a bit of time on the weekend taking photos of my stash and uploading it to Ravelry.
Some of the yarn I had forgotten I had! Like this …
Forgotten Yarn
I have two skeins so I can make socks.
What I think I will find the most useful is the Needle & Hook chart. I am forever buying new needles just in case, but now I shall be able to refer to my Ravelry page and see whether I have the correct needle size already.
Now I just need to do some knitting.

Sock Progress
So the second sock is progressing. I’ve turned the heel and now have to pick up the edge stitches.
I’ve been reading a book that mentions an over coat made of vicuna. I had never even heard of vicuna! I was intrigued. I thought maybe you could get it as yarn and knit something. Well you can, but I could only find 25g balls for $310 yes that’s right $310! Plus I could only find brown!

Second Sock Progress
I have finished the first sock!
I am slowly making my way through the second sock – there are so many other things I want to be doing.
I have been watching a few DVDs though – while I am making slow progress. I have re-watched the 1995 Pride and Prejudice (the one with Colin Firth) and I have just started watching the first season of The Newsroom, I really enjoy it, but does anyone else think they talk super fast?
